Hello and welcome
i really appreciate the way you have asked your question with complete medical history
Looking at your history this could be an upper respiratory tract infection
in my opinion you should get your following investigations done to confirm the diagnosis like hemoglobin CBC and an X ray chest
you may require a course of antibiotics preferably penicillin group of drugs like augmentin and a cough syrup
You can do warm saline gargles
you can take honey with ginger juice to relieve coughing
Hope this helps you
wishing you good health
take care
