Suggest Treatment For Coughing Green/yellow Phlegm While On Medication For Asthma
I've been coughing for months now - I do have asthma and am on the normal meds for that but nothing seems to stop me coughing. Every morning I cough up green/yellow phlegm and it makes me wretch. Today has been a particularly bad day. I continues throughn the day but not as sever as the first two hours of the morning

Hi, if u are coughing with sputum since 1 month then u must undergo CBC,Chest X- ray and sptum examination for R/M and AFB before starting antibiotics.
Now if phelgm or sputum is still coming then as I said earlier u will require antibiotics and expectorants,steam inhalation and bronchodilators nebulizers would be the best treatment.
So go to your pulmonologist.
U will be alright after this
