hi, thanks for the query.
i think that u have a chest infection and u should get a sputum culture and sensitivty test as u are facing this problem from 2 months while on antibiotics, this test will tell which organism is causing it and which group of antibiotics will better cover it.
meanwhile avoid throat irritants like smoke,dust,avoid smoking if u are a smoker and lastly avoid cold drinks.
hope i answered the question.
