What Causes Cough?

I have now had a cold for the past 7 days. I finally went to the doctors and she prescribed amoxicilyn 500mg. It has done absolutly nothing and this is day 3 of this. I was also taking robitussin because of the terrilbe cough. I could hear the mucous getting looser . This continuos cough has now become a apin on the right side of the solar plexus. It hurts really badly when i cough. I was told this morning by a good friend of mine to forget about drinking the ani-biotics and start on the natural mushrooms called Breathe. It is defenetly in the bronchioles. What do you suggest?

Respected user, hi I evaluated your query thoroughly.
* If one antibiotic is not working properly , it is decision of your treating
Physician to switch over you to another better molecule . considering your
case it is advisable to remain under antibiotic coverage for faster recovery
& avoid any unnecessary unpredictable outcomes.
* Supportive natural remedies you can add to your basket for good results
- drink plenty of liquids to maintain hydrations preferably boiled water,
green tea, coconut water, lemon juice
- gargles with salted leukwarm water & peppermint oil 3 times / day
- Tulsi , ginger , honey are working nice.
- avoid smoking / alcohol
- avoid exposure to pollens / polluted environments
- balanced nutritious diet to boost up natural immunity.
Hope this helps you to any extent.
