HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
It is likely that your symptoms are due to acute onset of the common cold.
This the most common reason for a new onset cough.
Other symptoms may occur as the illness progresses. The cough and cold can last for 7 to 10 days in general though this may vary.
There is medication that can be used to help decrease the symptoms but they would not affect how long the infections lasts.
Use of enough fluids, rest and over the counter cough medication would help to decrease your symptoms.
I hope this helps
