Suggest Treatment For Persistent Cough Despite Taking Antibiotics

I am into my 5th week with a cough that has been very persistent. I have had 2 lots of antibiotics but have not even touched it. After yet another coughing fit tonight I have developed a stitch feeling under my right breastfeeding just a little to the side. This has now got me worried

General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello.

First of all, please take your antibiotics and do not make such decisions about taking or not taking your prescribed medications. Doctors prescribe medications for a reason and by you not taking your antibiotics, you put your child at risk as well.

As for the new appearance, a physical examination will be necessary to determine the cause.

Best wishes
