How Long Can a Cough From Bronchitis Last? When your airways are inflamed or infected, coughing helps move mucus, dead cells and infectious organisms upward, where they can be swallowed or spit out. Some organisms, such as Mycoplasma or respiratory syncytial virus, generate airway inflammation that persists after the infection has cleared. In these cases, your cough may last for 3 to 8 weeks. With Bordetella pertussis, the bacterium that causes whooping cough, your cough can linger for months, even though the bacteria that triggered your symptoms have been eliminated.
