I usually call the doctor's office after the first week. Sometimes they have me come in for a test. Sometimes they suggest Nyquil, plenty of fluids, rest, and staying away from anyone who's smoking.
My aunt had a hacking cough with phlegm that lasted 1-2 months, and then she died from lung cancer. But she'd been suffering from lung cancer for several years, refused to do anything about it, smoked 3 packs a day, and the coughing was her final warning before she keeled over.
