Diagnosed 3 days ago with a sever sinus infection they put me on antibiotics & cough syurp for my cough & to help me sleep but my cough is getting bad?

Cough: The cough can be from the sinus infection but should get better within 3 days. If you have nasal allergies, you may also have a bit of asthma triggered by the infection. You did not mention if you are having trouble breathing, tell your doctor about your persistent cough.
