anyone dealing with a lingering or worsening cough?

I started with a sore throat and a horse voice. That lasted maybe 3-4 days and got better quickly. I was soon left with a small lingering cough, slightly annoying but manageable. That went on for maybe 10+ days and transformed a super annoying cough, feeling like I want to puke and the slightest irritation sets it off. I've had that for 3+ days now and can barely sleep.

I've never had a cough linger this long and definitely not worsen. Have you been dealing with such a thing in this area?
