I'm dealing with a dry cough and a throat infection. Which foods should I stay away from? Is it okay to have eggs and drink milk while I'm like this?

During a dry cough and throat infection, it is advisable to avoid foods that can irritate the throat such as spicy foods, acidic foods, and cold beverages. It is generally safe to consume eggs and milk during this period. However, if you notice that these foods worsen your symptoms, you may want to avoid them temporarily.
