Prescribed Antibiotics, Inhaler, Cough Medicine For Upper Respiratory Infection. Chlorine Taste While Coughing. What Could Be The Problem?
I have had a cough for about two and a half weeks now. I went to the doctor and I had an upper repertory infection and they gave me antibiotics, an inhaler, and a cough medicine. I wasn't having a productive cough. I had more flem come up after I finished my medicine but I am now still having chest pains and raspy cough with no flem and now I have been tasting clorrean taste when I cough. what could be the problem?
