Hello olaitan1. A cough can be caused by so many different things, even sometimes medication taken for other ailments. There is nobody here who can possibly diagnose what may be causing yours but someone may be able to offer tips on soothing it. I usually use honey when my cough becomes troublesome. Welcome to the forum.

I think you need to chase down the cause to be able to treat it properly. Have you consulted your GP?

Could it be acid reflux that is making you cough I wonder. Has anyone suggested that.

I have coughed for years, but mine is a productive cough not a dry one.

Fruit pastilles I find can help. I hope you get it sorted ...best wishes
