Question
I'm dealing with a persistent dry cough that's been bugging me for the past 6 months. I've tried all kinds of antibiotics, but nothing seems to kick it. All my lab tests have come back normal, so it's really puzzling. Any ideas on what could be going on, or what I could try next?

Persistent dry cough for 6 months despite normal lab reports and antibiotic treatment may indicate underlying conditions like gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD), postnasal drip, bronchial hyperresponsiveness, or even habit cough, so consider consulting a pulmonologist
