Dear lybrate user, please visit a doctor as some more details are required for correct diagnosis. The cause for the cough could be infection or allergy, its difficult to find out in your limited description above. Meanwhile, try doing warm salt water gargles in the morning & night, keeping some lozenges like Vicks or Strepsils could help you temporarily.
