Fever?: If you have a fever, an evaluation for bacterial pneumonia and COVID 19 are indicated. If you do not have a fever and the cough seems to be improving slowly, then you can wait one more week to see if it resolves, if there are no other major symptoms. Drink soothing fluids, rest and an over the counter cough preparation may help.
