Antibiotics course for bronchitis
I am suffering from viral and bacterial infection (bronchitis). doctor prescribed antibiotics for 5 days. how do I know if the infection is completely cured after 5 days and whether antibiotics need to be continued for few more days? doctor told me that cough can persist even after infection is treated, that doesn't mean antibiotics need to be continued. Are there any other symptoms that definitely indicate that antibiotics need to be continued OR do I need to meet the doctor again after 5 days? I forgot to ask him this question. I had viral and bacterial infection 2 times in past one and half month already and I had to take antibiotics 5 days each time and this time I want to make sure the infection is completely cured before stopping the antibiotics course.

Unsure what this is.
I had an hyperacidity episode 1.5 weeks ago however I recovered in a few days, this week I have been waking up feeling nauseous in the morning with lower abdomen pain and headaches, I assumed it to be acidity so I only ate at home, slept early and drank lots of water. However, I still feel bloated, have lower abdomen pain and my stool looks dark red/pinkish, I don't feel any pain while pooping or sitting and the consistency is fine. I feel hunger and don't have pain while eating. My breathing is normal and when I cough it doesn't hurt. I feel quite gassy and weird in my low abdomen. Few months ago I had a stomach and intestine infection. I have not been drinking alcohol or smoking. Please advise.

Phlegm in throat with food colour
Since a year I've been spitting phlegm out very often, especially in the morning after eating or drinking something. The food I eat is usually in the phlegm, even after an hour. It is more when I spit out the phlegm within ten minutes of eating. For example, when I drink milk in the morning, the phlegm is thick with the colour of boost/bourn vita. I rarely cough, occasionally sneeze and my nose is never runny unless I cry, but there is a little dry snot if it is picked. What could this be? The phlegm nowadays has more bubbles than yellow phlegm, and is mostly white or clear unless I've eaten.
