Hi thanks for your question.
The symptoms you have described are of upper respiratory tract infection,but any cough of more than 6 weeks duration needs investigation.You should definitely consult a Doctor who will be able to evaluate you for your symptoms and manage them depending upon the cause.
Hope this answers your question.
