Hard to say: Common things being common, it's likely a viral tracheobronchitis often referred to as a viral upper respiratory tract illness. But without knowing more about your symptoms like any sinuses issues, shortness of breath, wheezing, sneezing/itchy face or eyes, it could range from allergies to postnasal drip to pneumonia and even tuberculosis. If it's not getting better on its own seek help inperson

Bronchitis: You most likely have bronchitis. Most cases are viral in nature, though there is always a chance of bacterial infection as well. With symptoms for 2 weeks, I am also concerned that you may have developed pneumonia at this point. If your symptoms are not improving, you should seek medical care.
