What Is The Remedy For Chest Ache, Croup Type Cough, Wheezing With Heartburn And Throat Clearing Problems?

i HAVE BEEN HAVING A CHEST ACHE, CROUP TYPE COUGH, wheezing going on for a few months. In addition, I have noticed some more heartburn and regurgitation coming up the back of my throat. I also have bad throat clearing problems. Dr. prescribed antibiotics, but that hasn t gotten rid of the croup cough, chest ache or wheezing.
