Sometimes a cough can feel uncomfortable, but it actually serves a useful purpose when the cough produces mucus and foreign bodies from the airways that can irritate the lungs. A cough may be in response to inflammation or illness. Most coughs do not last long. It may catch a cold or the flu, cough for a few days or weeks and it will start to feel better.
Rarely, a cough lasts several weeks. Several months or years When coughing continues with no apparent cause, something might be serious. The cough that lasts 8 weeks or more is called "Chronic cough"
