Coughing up phlegm for 4 weeks straight?
about a month ago i got a cold, runny nose, fever, sore throat, and a horrible cough. eventually, after about 2 weeks, the cold went away but the cough remained. i've now had this cough for 4 weeks, it's so horrible. i cough up so much phlegm on a daily basis and am constantly coughing. is this just the cold hanging on, or could it be something more seroius?

Go to the doctor. Could be pneumonia, sinus infection, bronchitis. All of them are infections and you may need an antibiotic.
