Coughing for 3 weeks

2018-01-15 21:21:47
I have had a chronic wet cough with colored phlegm for over 3 weeks now. It started when I had cold like symptoms and my roommate needed antibiotics for a cough that had lots of wheezing. He has since gotten better as have I, but I have had this cough and head congestion that spikes on occasion to headaches, dry mouth, sore throat, and trouble sleeping.
