I've been dealing with a really bad cough for the last week. When I saw a few local doctors, they told me it's a throat infection, and I even got three injections, including steroids, but nothing has changed. I recently started using a pump, but still no sign of improvement. What should I do next?

I'm really concerned because I've been dealing with a persistent cough for the past two months. I've tried different treatments allopathic, ayurvedic, and homeopathic, but nothing seems to provide relief. It gets particularly bad whenever I'm near an air conditioner. Could you help me understand what's going on or suggest anything else I should try?

Thats due to allergy,avoiding the triggering factor is the only treatment for such conditions

I'm hearing a whistling sound when I breathe out, especially in the mornings. Coughing happens too, but it's pretty rare. I've been taking monticope and using an aerocort inhaler for relief when the issues kick in. Can you help me understand why this is happening and if there's anything else I should be doing about it?
