What Causes Hard Green Mucus With Small Chunks In Cough?
I have had a cough for about 3 weeks, its accompianed by hard green mucus sometimes (small chuncks) I do not have a fever, sore muscels, shortness of breathe or any signs of being sick other then my cough and my mucus my throat does not really hurt when I swallow and its not swollen. I lost my voice as well. Since I do not have a fever this would indicate it is not a bacterial infection and anti biotics wont work from what I understand. Is the best thing to do just increase fluid intake and rest?
