you may have caught a bacterial infection that grew because your body was fighting flu, or a cold virus. In that case you will need an antibiotic. Have you tried a humidifier? That's like a vaporizer only not hot. How about keeping a scarf around your throat, or a piece of flannel? Sounds strange, but sometimes it works.

Cooking onions and inhaling the steam could help

Orange juice or lemonade (hot lemonade, or hot tea with lemon)
Try a mouthwash made of salt water, and possibly a nasal spray (or nose drops) of saline could help.
A hot toddy might help, if you can or do drink.

I know these are sore throat remedies, but they can help. Sometimes it's the tickle in the throat that causes the coughing, coughing, coughing.

Taking tylenol or ibuprofen on a regular basis will help with the pain. Continue with the other stuff, it will eventually help. Cough medication every 6 hours. Vaporizer in the bedroom where you sleep. Can take anywhere from 10 days to 2 months before the cough is completely gone. Sounds like bronchitis.
