When it got worse the doctor gave me 4 days of steroids to take, cough medicine, and mucinex.Day 1-3: bad congestion, fatigue, sore throat, voice loss Day 4-7: began coughing. Had to increase use of my rescue inhaler Day 8: began to cough up disgusting green phlegm.Does the green phlegm mean I'm near the end? Or that I should go back in?. ### Response: Probably just a viral cold that needs to run its course which is usually 10 days - 2 weeks. I would add some Sudafed/flonase for your congestion. Hopefully you start feeling better soon..
