A member asked:
Really bad cold with yellow and green mucus for two weeks. symptoms improved but cough still lingering a month later with clear sputum. is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Post nasal drip: Post nasal drip is the likely cause of your cough. Over the counter Flonase 1 spray in each nostril twice daily and daily sinus rinses usually help. Hope this helps!
