About Cough (Acute Cough)

An acute cough is usually a symptom of a cold, flu, or other upper respiratory irritation rather than a standalone illness, and most resolve within 2–3 weeks as the airway reflex that clears mucus or irritants settles down. A cough lasting more than 3 weeks, or one accompanied by high fever, blood, or shortness of breath, needs medical evaluation rather than home remedies.
