I am suffering from dry cough with itching sensation in my chest/wind pipe. suffering frm 4yrs. lung function test result=normal. doc diagnose allergy?

See allergist: Your cough may be from post-nasal drips or from cough-variant asthma-in the latter the lung function test is often normal. The treatment for the latter is same as asthma although the medication doses may be much lower. Your best bet is to consult an allergist.
