Bronchitis vs asthma: Dry cough can be associated with asthma, especially if there is a family history or if accompanied by shortness of breath. If there is temperature then it could be bronchitis. Best to be checked by a physician who can listen to your lungs and, if necessary, get an xray.

Depends: A persistent dry cough has multiple causes. It could be a viral infection that is slowly resolving. It could also be related to allergies or environmental issues, among many other less common issues. Consider seeking a non-urgent visit with your doctor as a good history and physical exam are required to make specific treatment recommendations.
