Suggest Treatment For Bad Cough Which Gets Worse At Night

Please I have a bad cough which gets worse at night. The cough comes less frequently during the day, but it wakes me up at night. It has been continuing for a week now. I am 25 years old and I am not an asthmatic patient. I slept under my ceiling fan every night for two week continuously and the cough started after this incidence. I have been taking medicines - Benylin Chesty Cough, and Amoksiklav for the past three days but my cough hasn't improved. Please what might be my problem and what should I do?

Get a pulmonary function test done.. in the meanwhile try avoiding sleeping directly under the fan or reduce the speed of your fan.. treatment of other conditions depends upon the results of the test..
