My husband was diagnosed with pneumonia on 2/8. Treated with zithromax, amoxicillin, and then another round of zithromax. He s recovered except for post-nasal drip and cough and it feels like he has something stuck in his throat. He coughs up round balls (small, pale green in color). Has been having trouble sleeping for past 2 nights because half hour after he lays down, he gets coughing fits.
I completely understood your problem. Actually lower respiratory tract infection is the reason for green colored phlegm. Best u can do is get a culture for sputum and take medicine as per culture and sensitivity report that would be 100 percent effective or else u can take a course of antibiotics such as lifetime CV 200 BD for 7 days along with n acetyl cysteine tablets 600 mg in half glass of water TDS which will ease clearing up the phlegm. And for post nasal Chat Doctor.
