Hi

Thanks for posting your query.

Acute bronchitis can happen due to allergy, viral or bacterial infection.

Yellow phlegm indicates an infection and symptoms lasting for 10 days indicates bacterial infection.

So you need to be started on an antibiotic course, preferably Azithromycin. Kindly get a prescription for that and use it.

In addition do salt water gargling 3-4 times , drink hot water, eat less oily food and avoid non veg food.

Hope this information was useful to you.
Any clarification feel free to ask.

Regards.
