Chronic Cough: Cough that has been going on that long is called chronic cough and ought to be looked at. Your doctor might ask questions about coughing blood, night sweats and weight loss and may test you for TB. However the most common cause of what you are describing is asthma and in smokers, chronic bronchitis. Another consideration is reflux. In any case, seek professional help.
