Time to see the doc: You are doing so much right! But a month-long productive cough suggests to me it is time to have a doctor listen to your lungs, check your sinuses, perhaps analyze the phlegm. Hang in there.

Mgt: I would suggest seeing your PCP. They can order a sputum culture, mycoplasma titer and antibiotics as indicated. A chest radiograph may be ordered if there are abnormal breath sounds.
