hi weijang, Have you taken any medicine for cough? You need to identify what kind of cough you have. Drink lots of water and have a good rest. You better consult your doctor when you still have it more than a week, that is the best thing to do.

hi weijiang, it depends if you have been taking your medication as prescribed. if you have not consulted a physician better consult immediately so that the physician can prescibed you the best medicine available. do not try to experiment different kinds of cough medication coz it will cost you a lot and it will damage some of your system. better to consult a physician. :

I haven't had a cough in ages but after four days of one that would be agravating. Have you taken some cough medicine at all? How about trying tea with honey and lemon, or some throat lozenges. Do you smoke? If so you need to stop to get better. If it continues after a week I would go to the doctor if I were you.

all you have to do is consult your doctor. so that you know what kind of an allergy causing your cough or to know what kind of medicine to take. and you have to drink a lot of water or drink various vitamins, such as vitamin C

I think having a cough and being sick in general, like when you hvae a fever is very painful to all people. As for coughs, it may take up to a week to recover but only if you know how to treat yourself properly. What works for me is the following recipe: Place some honey (any type) is a cup of hot water. Stirr the honey so that it would be kind of dissolved in the water. Then what you must do is buy some ginger, breack it and sprinkle it in your cup. Because of the ginger, it will be a little spicy, but in a week or less, by doing this, my coughs have always went away.
