“Why do I keep coughing with my AC on in my room?”
I keep getting this cough whenever the AC is on near me, whether it's in my office and in my bedroom. The cough is pretty dry, and nothing comes up (no phlegm). Could this be an allergy from something outside? What should I do?

I would advise that you see an allergist. This is a common presentation that we see and investigation for allergies and potentially asthmatic like response to either cold air or allergens released by the AC is certainly very reasonable.
The most likely culprit to a summertime cough is allergies. If your filter isn't working properly, then it is possible that your air conditioning system is circulating pollen, dust, and other particles that can contribute to coughing and other allergy symptoms.
