In Ayurveda, chronic allergic cough is often linked to an imbalance in the Vata and Kapha doshas, and is exacerbated by impurities (or ama) in the respiratory system. Since your cough has persisted for years and worsened in the past few months, it’s crucial to address both the root cause (allergic reaction) and the symptoms (dry cough). You can try herbal remedies like Tulsi (holy basil) and Ginger, both of which help in clearing mucus, reducing inflammation, and soothing the throat. Additionally, Triphala or Haritaki can aid in detoxifying the body and improving immunity. A warm, moist environment and inhaling steam with Eucalyptus or Peppermint essential oils can provide relief from the dryness in the respiratory system. Dietary changes like avoiding cold and dry foods, spicy and oily foods, and incorporating warm, soothing foods like soups and stews may help balance your doshas. Lastly, incorporating stress management techniques, including meditation and pranayama (breathing exercises), will support your immune system and reduce the frequency of allergic reactions. For a more targeted and personalized treatment plan, it's best to consult with an Ayurvedic practitioner who can assess your condition in detail and suggest a treatment tailored to your needs. With consistent care and lifestyle changes, you should start to notice improvements.

Ah, dry coughs that just won't go away can be such a nagging problem, especially when they stick around for years. Since you mentioned it's an allergic cough, there’s likely some imbalance related to Kapha and Vata doshas, stirring up some unwanted dryness and irritation. First, keep an eye on the allergens that might be triggering this. House dust mites, pollen, or even a specific strong smell might be setting things off. Minimizing exposure could be a win here. But remember, finding a way to build up your body's resistance can be equally valuable. Now, from an Ayurvedic angle, I'd suggest beginning with your diet. Warm and moist is the way to go. So, swapping cold and dry foods for warm soups or stews might help. You might want to incorporate ginger and turmeric into your meals as well, since they have properties that aid in soothing the throat and reducing inflammation. Give them a chance to work their magic every day! Include herbal teas that have Mulethi (licorice root) and Tulsi (holy basil). They can bring a gentle relief to your respiratory passages, especially when drunk warm. Just sip throughout the day, when you can. Lifestyle wise, consider using a steam inhalation, maybe with a couple drops of eucalyptus oil, to moisturize the throat and the nasal passages. It’s like giving your respiratory system a mini sauna, ya know? For a more permanent approach, engaging with regular Pranayama exercises could be incredibly beneficial. Try Anulom Vilom and Bhramari to balance the 'Prana' and promote better lung function—short sessions each day can make a difference over time. Remember, while these methods often support wellbeing, if things start seriously flaring again, it's smart to loop back with a medical professional. Allergic symptoms sometimes throw curveballs, so staying cautious is key. Good luck, and hope you find some relief soon!
