Coughing is the body's good response to expel foreign bodies or mucus from the lungs or throat. However, a prolonged cough will cause harm to the body such as sore throat, headache, chest pain, otitis media. For cough symptoms, if the cough is less than three weeks is called acute cough, cough lasting for 3-6 weeks is called subacute cough, cough lasting for more than 8 weeks is called chronic cough.
Causes of chronic cough include the following main causes: postnasal discharge may be caused by allergic rhinitis, vasomotor rhinitis, chronic bacterial sinusitis; due to asthma and allergies; due to gastroesophageal reflux disease; due to chronic bronchitis; due to the use of some ACE inhibitors in the treatment of hypertension; due to eosinophile bronchitis

In the letter, you only said that you had a cough for 2 months and you took the medicine but it did not go away, but you have not yet clarified some of the other symptoms, such as a dry cough with a productive cough, heartburn or nausea, contact. with polluted environments such as cigarette smoke, car exhaust . .



so we can hardly give you specific advice.
It is best to visit an ENT specialist to get some more tests needed, find the exact cause of a persistent cough, then take appropriate treatment..
