Hi Dear, Welcome to Chat Doctor. Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of chronic cough, runny nose and dizziness which is due to upper respiratory infection due to poor immunity of your body. Need not worry. I would suggest you to avoid use of spicy, sharp oily and fried food substances. Apply mist humidifiers in room. You should take cough expectorants. You should do warm saline rinses 3-4 times a day. Furthermore, you should avoid cold carbonated beverages. Furthermore, you should take throat soothing agents. Furthermore, you should take combination of antibiotic Levofloxacin along with antihistamine such as Levocetirizine. Furthermore, you should visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. Furthermore, you should get chest x-ray done along with pulmonary function tests done to detect level of infection and treatment can be started accordingly. Hope your concern has been resolved.
