Question

I've been dealing with a dry cough for over a month now, and it never seemed to completely go away. Now it's back with that annoying metallic taste in my mouth, and I even had a fever yesterday. I've been trying some home remedies like gargling and taking honey with ginger, thinking it's just a regular throat infection. I'm curious if there's something more going on or if there's anything else I should be doing to get better?

That could be recurrent or allergic pharyngitis,identify the cause and try to avoid it, no need to worry its common to get reinfected at an interval of one month,consume good food for better immunity.

Question

I'm feeling really anxious because I went to the dentist for an emergency treatment today and now I've suddenly got this urge to cough. It feels like there's something stuck in my throat. Could this possibly be related to COVID? The dentist was super careful and followed all the protocols like wearing a face shield, sanitizing everything, using air purifiers, and taking my temperature. He even mentioned he hasnt seen any other patients in a month. Despite all this, I'm still worried. What should I do about these symptoms I'm experiencing?
