The cause of the cough should be determined. Avoid smoke and allergic triggers such as dust,mold,pet dander and pollen. A chest image and pulmonary testing may be indicated. Are there signs of fever, shortness of breath or worsening with activity? Keep nasal passages clear and consider a Telemedicine consult with Health tap. A COVID 19 screening test is indicated.
