I cough heavily - especially in the morning. this has been an issue for 2 months. we live in the free state where it is dry?

2 months is long: If some cough is just from a mild cold, then OTC cold medicines are what people usually find relief with. However, some illnesses such as asthma, allergies, strep throat and "the flu" also have these same cough symptoms, but can be treated by a doctor with additional medicines. A chronic cough of 2 months can be infection, allergies, asthma, cancer, etc... Older adults should rule out cancer.
