Hi, A two months long cough needs a full physical examination & investigations like complete blood work,X ray chest, sputum test -as per indication. It can be allergic,infective(Viral/bacterial)- giving rise to fever with shivering, body ache & cough. I would advice you to visit IR & also consult a physician for a careful diagnosis & treatment. Thanks.
