"Productive", when speaking of coughs, means "productive of mucus." If you're hacking up balls of phlegm, that's a productive cough. Certain diseases are associated with productive coughs, and others aren't. Flu is one of the ones that aren't as mucus-producing in most people.

The kind of cough is not diagnostic of Swine Flu. The swine flu has many of the same symptoms as the regular flu. You cannot tell by the type of cough what type of flu you have. Your doctor cannot even tell that. If you are displaying actual flu symptoms, your doctor can order a laboratory test to confirm or rule out the swine flu. That is the only way to receive a proper diagnosis to which flu subtype you may or may not have. See the related question below for a more detailed description of the symptoms of swine flu.
