I have a very disturbing cough that's preventing me from sleeping and now it's causing a headache. Also, my heart aches a bit when I cough, could it be something serious? What can I do to treat it?

We need to know more details about the onset of the cough, when it started, if it's dry or productive, if symptoms only appear at night or also during the day, if there is any smoking history, family history of asthma, heartburn and any preceding flu symptoms in addition to a proper exam to able to treat you well. Your cough can be an upper airway cough syndrome or a cough variant- asthma or gastroesophageal reflux disease. And each has its treatment.
