Also having pain in fingers joint and also hurt. All these symptoms may be due to these reasons:1 Anemia, since cough is for long duration, so get in blood for hemoglobin examination.2 Tuberculosis, since this cough, runny nose is for last 8-9 months, so we cant rule out tuberculosis. Diagnosis can be confirmed by X-ray chest, Contours test and sputum for AFB.3 Allergic bronchitis is another reason of such symptoms. When such patient visit I advise my patient to take montelukastalbuterol tablet once or twice in day according to severity of symptoms normal dose is one tablet at nighttime. Also take some cough syrup containing chlorampheniramine dextromethophan aerosol. However, there are so many other reasons of such symptoms, but physical examination is important in this case because symptoms are for 8-9 months so consult a physician and get his opinion.
