Suggest Treatment For Sore Throat And Heaviness In The Chest Area

hi I am a 50 year old woman and in the last 3 months I have a semi sore throat and some heaviness in my chest, I also have a cough that wont go away. I have a wet cough. I m tired all the time and I feel like I have an excess of mucas that I ant get rid of. I am a smoker a pack a day. I m not sure if I should be concerned or if its just a lingering cold.
