My friend has been sick for over a month. Have been coughing up mucus, bad pains in head, neck, lower back and spine. Doctor checked for flu which was negative. Did spinal tap for meningitis and it was negative. Chest X-ray was clear. Blood work wasn t bad. But hurting a lot and no one can tell us why.

Hello,


Your symptoms can be due to any bacterial infection. Your blood culture report has to be checked with or can be treated with antibiotics like amoxicillin-clavulanic acid for five to seven days depending on your clinical condition, along with a cough producing syrups which thin mucus, and you can cough it out.



Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Archana
