Need urgent help for lingering deep dry cough

I am having a lingering cough for last 2 to 3 weeks.
Cough Symptoms are:
1. It is deep, dry with no mucus.
2. a little irritating, so will occur a few times
3. worse when talking and walking
4. get short of breath and then cough
I have taken Bryonia 30 & Phosphorus 30 but didn't help.
Can you please let me know urgently what remedy I should take to get relief.
Thanks for the help.

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
May i know whats the expected cause for your cough? What did you do 3 weeks ago?

I had caught common cold or cough 4 weeks back. Cough didn't go completely since then. It seemed it was improving, but I had to talk a lot one day 3 weeks back, and that worsened it. since then not much improvement.
Cough gets worse by exercise and talking.
Thanks.

Took 1 dose of Arnica 200 yesterday. Feeling down and tired after I woke up today.
Feel a little tightness in chest after coughing for a while. No fever.
Please advise on next steps.

Thanks.

You may be having this due to very subtle drip from your cold that goes down back of throat sinus passages.
No mucous but that drip,especially at night gets a small amount of mucous into the chest. After that happens the body is dealing with the head cold and then chest also -which is why it takes longer and hangs on.

Try kali mur 6x 4tabs 4x a day along with ferrum phos 6x 4 tabs 4x a day for 4days.

Kali Mur will stop any drip still going on that you may not even notice-
Ferrum phos 6x raises immunity.
Next time you get even a hint of cold or flu start ferrum phos 6x right away.

If you take fp on first or second day,
It usually will stop the cold or flu.

The main problem is that my head is hurting, and overall I feel very weak & tired. Have no energy. Cough is less deep and more mucousy.
Should I take Kali mur & Ferrum Phos as suggested.
Thanks.

Yes.. you can take those... Also add mag phos 6x 4tablets in luke warm water only if headache is not better by these
 
drthoufeequebhms 6 years ago
Thanks for the help.

So took Rhus tox as suggested yesterday. Also, took Kali Mur for 2 days.
Weakness and headache are no more. But cough still there. It is deep and dry- not much change.
Please suggest what to take next.

Please see response below.
1.It gets better by drinking hot water
2.time of aggravation-night
3.more after eating-not sure
4.better after sleep -yes
5.better by rest and more by movement -yes; gets worse by talking.
6.any pain or feeling in chest or throat during cough- it was in chest earlier, now it has moved to throat. Some pain in throat.
7.any other problem during or after cough
The cough is less deep now, and smaller cough.
