Coughing white sputum very minimal

2022-11-18 08:29:09
Hi, a week ago I had sore throat for which I took anti becterial medicines and cough syrup for 3 days. Sore throat was cured but after that I am having little cough 4-5 times a day which is not regular or persistent. Color of sputum is white little frothy. I have no other symptoms at all. Is there a concern to worry about?
