Suggest Remedies For Severe Cough When Diagnosed With Pneumonia
I ve have a cold for three months now and it turned into pneumonia about a month ago so I took ten days of antibiotics and it was just about cured. For the last two weeks I m spitting up salty phleym and I have to cough several times before I get it up causing my stomach muscell to get sore. This has been going on for two weeks now with no improvement. I ve had a heart transplant so my immune system is weak. Shall I cary on or go in and see a doctor for the fourth time. Thanks in advance Ken
