What Causes Persistent Fever And Cough?

I ve been not feeling well since 4-2. Fever the 1st day then coughing ever since. Gets better for 1 or 2 days then back to the coughing. Take expectorant now and then and take aspirin and it helps with the coughing. Should I see a dr?. People have said it last or could last for 100 days.? I coughed for 2 hrs last night. e mail at YYYY@YYYY

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, such cough symptoms could be due allergic cough, and some time this may last long (If not having any other symptoms of fever weight loss, fatigue) cough can be managed with antihistamine and best drug would be "Tab Diphyramine " three time in day, if the symptoms does not comes around then it may need investigation, hope this information helps, take care.
