[|AI|]  Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of persistent cough despite taking medication which is due to severe upper respiratory tract infection. It seems due to poor immunity of body you are highly susceptible and prone to infections. The infection is probably a strep throat. Need not worry. I would suggest you to start with course of antibiotics and anti-inflammatory Chat Doctor. . For now do warm saline rinses, take rest. Avoid taking cold beverages. You should take mast cell stabilizers to prevent from infection. I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist without any delay. Doctor may order blood test, throat swab test or virus culture test. You should get an x-ray of the chest. Doctor may prescribe antibiotics amoxicillin at least for 10 days along with bucolic agents. Go for complete blood count and platelet count to rule out any hidden systemic pathology. You should avoid hot, sharp and spicy foods. . Hope your concern has been resolved. Get Well Soon. Best Wishes,
