General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to an upper respiratory tract infection. I recommend using mucolytics for a cough. I also recommend giving liquids. If the symptoms continue another cycle of antibiotics may be needed.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
