[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. In my opinion, we should rule out pneumonia (lung infection) in your case. So get done chest x-ray and sputum culture and sensitivity report. Culture report will isolate the causative organism and sensitivity report will guide about effective antibiotic treatment. By this we can achieve speedy recovery with appropriate antibiotics.  Chat Doctor.
