Types of cough

The problem of dry cough can start due to respiratory diseases, such as cold or flu. Such a problem starts when there is less or no mucus in the throat. Due to such a condition, a person feels itching in his throat and also starts coughing. Although the problem of a cough gets cured on its own, the problem of a cough lasting for a long time can invite other diseases. These diseases include -
