Bronchitis: Hi definition, bronchitis is a cough that seems to last way too long. I recommend that you follow up with your doctor to see if there are any alternate remedies that might be able to help you overcome the symptom of cough. Often time it is drainage coming from your nose and throat that causes your call. Other times it is inflammation of the upper airways that causes you to cough.

Terrible cough: you may still have post-nasal drip causing you to cough. if the cough persists, please discuss with your physician if you have cough variant asthma

Cough: Bronchitis can go one for a month with that bad cough.. Sometimes though it can lead to pneumonia or a type of asthma called cough asthma. You many need a chest xray to check for pneumonia
