For over a year, i have a recurring cough that has become progressively worse in intensity and duration. what could it be ?

See a doc: You need a full exam. it could be chronic bronchitis, walking low grade pneumonia or other issues. Please see a medical doctor for assessment and treatment. Its hard to advice without examination and more detail history and physical exam.
