My antibiotic ended that i was taking for a sinus infection, my cough is still the same, i can feel it in my chest when i breathe. what should i do?

See your doctor: Sinus infections are often viral. Sinus blockage can also be caused by allergies or other non-infectious conditions. None of these will improve with antibiotics. You should see your doctor for re-assessment to determine the best treatment if you have not improved with antibiotics.
