Cough lasting for three months is considered as chronic cough and needs to be evaluated in detail by clinical examination and tests such as X RAY chest, CT thorax, sputum examination etc. Treatment depends on identifying cause for your problem
Next Steps
Consult nearby pulmonologist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
