Hi, thank you for posting.

I think that you suffer from a bacterial bronchopneumonia, that is manifested with green sputum.

To determine the right diagnosis you need:
1- Pulmonary X-ray.
2- Complete blood count.
3- Urine test.
4- Sputum culture.

The treatment of this disease contain antibiotic medicines.

Consult your pulmonologist.

I hope you find this helpful.

Regards.
Dr. Behar.
