Phlegm is coming up, but not as much as before and I am feeling better, but the cough comes and I continue to cough continuiously.

General & Family Physician 's  Response
HI, as far as the illness is on an improving trend, you need not do anything but to just follow your doctors prescription. Any cough will take atelast 2-3 weeks to completely settle as Lung is a one-way organ. You have no other way but to cough out all your infection. So it takes time.
