Possibilities...: Possible causes of your cough include bronchospasm from any etiology, including seasonal allergies, sinus difficulties resulting in post-nasal drip, gerd or even a combination of factors. If you smoke, smoking cessation needs to happen to decrease airway inflammation. See your doctor so this can be diagnosed as all these possibilities have different treatments.

Agree with Dr. F: Any cough lasting longer than 2 weeks ought to be evaluated by a physician.
