[|AI|]  Hello dear, thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your situation and problem. In my opinion you should consult pulmonologist and get done1. PUT (pulmonary function test)2. Sputum culture and sensitivity to guide antibiotic therapy. For the diagnosis of bronchitis, PFT is must. It will also tell you about severity of the disease. And treatment is based on severity only. So get done PFT. You may need, inhaled bronchodilators too. Since, you have started yellowish expectations (mucus), possibility of bacterial infection is high. So we need to first isolate the causative organism a dthen start appropriate antibiotics. For this sputum culture and sensitivity is needed. Consult pulmonologist and discuss all these. Better to avoid haphazard use of antibiotics.
