A member asked:

I have chills, cough / coughing up mucus, over tired, lack of appetite for 8 days. what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Depends: If you have fever, see a doctor now. If you do not have fever, you may try steam inhalation to clear out the mucus. If the cough lasts more than two weeks, see a doctor. Wish you good health!
