Coughing is a natural body mechanism used to purify the airways of inhaled impurities. It is usually due to irritation which can be found throughout the respiratory tree: the trachea, the bronchi.
In bronchitis, the cough is usually first "dry" and then becomes oily within a few days. But during a winter respiratory condition, the cough can be "mixed": sometimes dry, sometimes oily, depending on the time. After such a viral episode, the cough continues for 3 to 8 weeks while the disease is cured, because the mucosa of the respiratory tree has been weakened: it is called "post-infectious" and "sub-acute".
