Hi,

Thanks for your query.

Kindly provide some more details on your problem so that I can understand better and advice you specifically.

Since when do you have the cough ?
What times of the day is the cough more ?
What is the colour of the phlegm?
Have you taken any medications for the same ?
Are you on any medication for any other illnesses ?
