The thing is, there's no inflammation or anything so I know there is very little probability that it is a bacterial infection, therefore antibiotics won't do anything. So that's why I haven't seen a doctor.
My feeling is this: If you are worried about it, go see a Doctor. Sometimes its worth the money if it eases your discomfort. Also, by worrying you might be making it worse. This is my "mind over matter" thing in play.
For me, I'm used to bad coughs and allergies. I kind of survive through random viral attacks frequently. I almost never get a bacterial infection, but viruses attack me because I'm always overworking and stressing myself. I guess I've just gotten used to it. Hehe.
Good luck! I hope you feel better.
Interestingly enough, I wrote this comment after just coughing myself, lol.
