What Should I Do As I Am Feeling Some Kind Of Respiratory Infection?

Hello, I ve had a cold and a cough for about a week. My father in law had a respiratory infection and I think I caught it from my husband. I have a tickle in my throat most of the time. Coughing doesn t help. Now it feels like something is heavy in my lungs, and today I tasted blood when I coughed hard to get rid of this tickle. No blood comes out, no mucus.
