A member asked:
What do you suggest if i have been coughing up phlegm for 2 months i was told what do you suggest if i have bronchitis from the cold i contacted i was?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Phlegm: You might have upper airway cough syndrome, it means you have discharge from your nose to your throat which causes the irritation there and make you cough and bring the discharge up, the treatment is steroid nose spray. The other reason is that you might have developed allergy to the antigen of the visrus that had caused cold months before, treatment is the same, nose spray.
