Brief Answer:
Get done x ray of chest and paranasal sinuses.

Detailed Answer:
Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, you should get done x ray chest and sinuses to rule out lung infection and sinusitis.
Green mucus, chest pain etc are suggestive of lung infection or sinusitis.
So get done x ray of chest and paranasal sinuses to rule out lung infection and sinusitis.
You may need higher antibiotic with better antibacterial coverage.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
