No: It's definitely not normal. Might not be serious but it's not normal. Get checked out by your doctor.

Not normal..,,: When cough and congestion are present for this long, the presence of bronchospasm needs to be considered since bronchitis due to infection usually resolves by this time. Treatment includes bronchodilator and possible steroid inhalers. You need to see your doctor for diagnosis and treatment.

Not normal: The symptoms of nasal congestion and cough can be suggestive of allergies or sinus infection. It is not uncommon for both to continue for weeks or longer. There is effective treatment for both.
