Added humidifier to my 3 year olds room and its reduced his cough a lot! ive noticed he still develops the cough after eating dairy. could this be a sign of an intolerance or is it that he already has a cough and dairy irritates it anyway?

Doubt it : I would not label dairy intolerance as a cough related symptom. Diarrhea, cramping & belly pain would be. If fluids backwash & trigger reflux it can trigger cough. If he tolerates dairy based cheese without these symptoms it is more likely the texture/fluid issue.
