It could be something worse, like bronchitis or pneumonia. However, since you do not have a fever and do not feel badly, it is less likely that this is something worse. If it is just a cold, it should definitely be better after 7 days. If not, even though you feel well, this could be a bacterial sinusitis.
If you have not nearly recovered by the time you receive this message, you should definitely see your doctor.
Hi, does it feel like there is something stuck in your throat and when you try to cough it out, it does the barking sound but never clears?
