Can Coughing Be Related To Residual Effect Of Infection?

I have a wheezing cough that originates from the base of my neck.....a tickle that causes me to cough routinely....particularly when I have nasal drainage....not sure whether it could be allergies or residual effect of infection - took antibiotics for two weeks to get rid of infection in throat....how do I get rid of this cough....seems to be getting lower into my lungs...
