You obviously have some kind of infection, thus the green phlegm. It could be a virus or bacterial. If you go into the doc, they will give you antibiotics in case it’s bacterial. If it’s viral, all you can do is bed rest, lots of fluids, and cough medicines to treat the symptoms. I would start doing that now, and then if you don’t feel better in a few days, go in and get some antibiotics.

But make sure you take care of yourself in those few days with fluids and rest, otherwise you aren’t helping your body fight it.
