Not enough info: Don/t know where your pain is or why you were taking an antibiotic or if the cough is even part of the illness. But, if you had a sore throat, nasal congestion, sinus pain and cough, that is usually a viral URI and antibitoics don't help anyway. It takes t ime, 10-14 days, and the cough can linger for a month or more.
