Hello doctor, I have something to ask you in my case. Last november 2018, I was diagnosed of having a community acquired pneumonia (moderate risk) and got hospitalized for 3 days. The doctor prescribed me to take cefuroxime and it made me feel okay, my phlegm is not that yellow again. But after a few weeks of stopping my medications, the yellowish and sticky phlegm returned then I went to a check up and have an xray finding of bronchitis and prescribed me again of cefuroxime for a week. Then again, after a month now, I observed that the yellowish and sticky phlegm returned again now. And im so much confused and worried about my health, I do not know if I have something more that needs more medication. Kindly help me please.
