Long lasting cough
I've have a cough that has lasted for about a month and a half now and I don't know why. I am not sick in any other way, I haven't even had a stuffed up nose. Could this have anything to do with asthma or anything? I have exercise induced asthma currently, could it be escalating?

You could have the cough due to acid reflux, asthma or post nasal drip.
