You should be tested for covid when I had covid I had a dry cough with throat spasms. There are home kits you can get.

Thank you.

Some blood pressure medications can cause a cough as a side effect. You should notify your doctor about it, maybe get a Xray to make sure you don't have asthma or something like that.

I've had a dry cough for almost a year and have mentioned it to my primary care doctor but he basically just dismisses it.

It is sporadic but still daily.

Sounds similar to me. It is starting to lessen now.
