Suggest Remedy To Relieve Cough And Headache Due To It

I had an upper resp. infection a few weeks ago which seems to have improved. Now I have a deep cough (meaning that I have to keep coughing and pretty hard for the sensation to stop) that gets really bad when I lie down. Now my head is beginning to hurt when I cough as well. I don't have any more congestion or a runny nose. I do still cough up gunk though.
