A dry cough is a common symptom that manifests itself as a sudden, sometimes intense expulsion of air from the respiratory tract without sputum or other secretions. Unlike a wet cough, which helps clear sputum from the airways, a dry cough is often irritating and can be distressing to the patient without reducing discomfort or helping to clear airway irritants. The causes of a dry cough are varied and include both infectious and non-infectious conditions, and its duration can vary from short-term to long-term (chronic) cough.

The thyroid gland is a small but very important organ of the endocrine system, located at the front of the human neck, near the trachea. It plays an essential role in regulating metabolism, energy production, thermoregulation, growth and many other body functions. The thyroid gland is shaped like a butterfly, and its weight in an adult is about 15-20 grams. This organ produces two main hormones: thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), which are necessary for the normal functioning of the body.
