Suggest Treatment For Cough , Lower Back Pain And Headache
I m unsure if I should see a dr. I have been feeling bad for about 1 week. At first I thought just a cold, as days passed not getting any better. Symptoms are congestion, right eye pressure, mild headache when I cough, lower back pain. Clear nasal fluid when I blow my nose, however coughing up is yellow, no sore throat, on and off nausea.

Dear- thanks for using our service and I understand your concern. It looks that you are having an infection, due to the symptoms, color of the phlegm and congestion. You have been suffering from this problem for one week, which goes more with a bacterial than viral infection. It is advisable to go to your primary care doctor for a physical examination and antibiotic treatment. The reason that you need antibiotic is because of the duration of your symptoms and the color of your phlegm.You might need a CXR too.
I hope that my advise has been helpful.
