Hi,
It Could be because of bronchitis(allergic or infective) or pertussis or seasonal asthma etc.
You may undergo routine blood count,ESR with X- ray chest and pulmonary function test.
You might require antibiotics (quinolones or macrolides or amoxillin with clavulanic acid) with cough suppressants (antiallergic antihistamines or mast cell stabilizers) and antiinflammatories or analgesics on as and when required basis.
You must consult your pulmonologist to get diagnosed first and then seek for treatment.
Thanks and Rehards,
