Please mention the character of your cough. If it's bacterial, try salt water gargle 3 times daily along with steam inhalation. Consult for further analysis.

A cough lasting more than 1–2 weeks can have several causes such as infection, allergy, or bronchitis. To guide you properly I would need to ask a few important questions: • Are you having fever, breathlessness, or chest pain? • Is the cough dry or with sputum? If sputum is present, what is its color? • Do you have throat pain, cold, or nasal congestion? • Do you smoke or have any history of asthma or allergies? • Have you taken any medicines already? Based on your symptoms I can assess whether it is likely viral, bacterial, or allergy related and advise the appropriate treatment. Please book a consultation so I can evaluate your symptoms properly and guide you with the right medications and precautions.

If you have been suffering from cough for about 1.5 weeks due to a bacterial infection, it is important to evaluate the condition properly. Persistent cough can occur due to throat infection, bronchitis, or chest infection. For now, take adequate rest, drink plenty of warm fluids, and avoid cold food or drinks. Steam inhalation and warm water gargles may also help reduce throat irritation. However, since the cough has lasted more than a week, it is advisable to consult a doctor so that your symptoms can be assessed properly. If needed, investigations such as a chest examination or other tests may be recommended. Please visit the clinic or schedule a consultation so that your condition can be evaluated and appropriate treatment can be started.
