A member asked:
I'm coughing up grey mucus, and the last few days have been pretty bad like the last two days it's causing pains to my right side in the back?

See doc: If you are coughing up large amounts of mucus, I would advise you to see your physician, especially if it is causing you pain. He or she can do a full history and physician and determine you just need rest and fluid or if you need antibiotic treatment as well.
