What Causes Persistent Cough, Chest Congestion And Headache?

Hello, I started with a very bad wet cough about 5-6 days ago. Chest congestion and my lungs sound like they re crackling when I exhale. Also have a constant headache. Earlier today I started getting light headed and dizzy. My left arm from my finger tips to my shoulder went completely numb. Only lasted about 15 seconds. Now both my hands are ICE cold and my finger tips are numb. All 10 fingers. It actually feels like the numbness is working down the fingers to my hand. It s been like this for about 30 minutes now. I also have chills.
