My mother has been suffering from non-stop coughing all night since the last 10 days. Is it because of the viral fever currently going on in Mumbai or could it be some infection? What could be the possible line of treatment? She has completed one course of antibiotics and is now taking cough syrups and other tablets.

Ans: Kindly check if there were any new medications changed in the last two weeks with respect to high blood pressure, or for heart issues, can cause dry cough.
If that's not the case then keep giving her warm sips of fluids, early dinner, no oily or spicy food. She would feel better
