The worst of my cold seems to have passed, but i keep coughing up green mucus, and there was a streak of bright yellow mucus when i blew my nose.

Bronchitis?: This sounds like garden-variety post-viral bronchitis, generally not serious. But see your doctor if it persists more than another week, or if you develop fever, shortness of breath, chest pain, or blood streaking in mucus (either nasal or cought up). If you are a smoker, that's probably the main problem. Good luck!
