Detailed Answer:
Hello and welcome in Ask the Doctor
I can understand your concern
According to the history you provide I don't think this cough is related to any infection due to travel because those have fever mostly and a general discomfort with fatigue.
In my opinion it seems like an allergic cough.You can use antihistamines such as : Telfast 180 mg twice orally for one week
Usually it improves or in others it disappears.If not than first step is a chest X ray.
Please if you smoke stop it at least these days.
Hope to have been helpful
