Phlegm in lungs

2018-10-01 18:17:47
My daughter is suffering from frequent cold and cough. Doctor diagnosed that she has phlegm in lungs and treated it and got reduced.  But it started to repeat again after 10days. I heard that this phlegm will not reduce in a single go and will take months to reduce. Is that true?
