Suggest Treatment For Cough And Accumulation Of Mucus In Lungs
I had pneumonia two weeks ago. I m taking Mucinex and using my Albuterol inhaler to try to clear my lungs. I m still coughing and producing mucus. I am scheduled for back surgery in two weeks. How long can I expect it to it take to clear my lungs,and is there anything else I can do to expedite the process?

The symptoms you had mentioned are mostly suggestive of some sort of throat infection. For treatment you can take some antibiotic preferably azithral or moxikind-cv after an expert advice along with diominic-dca or wikoryl for pain and congestion. You can take asthakind or bro-zedex for cough soothing of your throat. Do warm water gargles and take steam inhalation to reduce the congestion and soreness in the throat.
