Hello and welcome Veer, the symptoms which you are having since last two days seems to be a superimposed bacterial infection of the lower respiratory tract. Kindly meet your consultant soon and get one culture and sensitivity of your sputum sample done as well as a latest chest x ray. Continue with your medicine mean while. Take care and get well soon.
