Hello. Try drinking warm water boiled with jeera for time being. Take 10ml melted ghee on empty stomach along with hot water. Since it is long duration, you need to visit a physician who can rule out some other diseases like Chronic Infection or TB like disease. Get a thorough investigation done like X ray chest and basic blood investigations along with sputum for AFB.
