Use an expectorant cough syrup. It help to thin the mucus to get it out of your body. The germs are in the mucus so you really need to get rid of it, not hold it in. I know its gross, but keep spitting it out.

Michelle,
What colour is the mucus?
If not green Ok it means you are getting rid of it.
To enhance expectoration if needed Senega & Ammonia from chemist 10-20ml in hot water twice daily should help.
The antibiotics destroy beneficial bacteria in the gut. So when finished the antibiotic obtain "Inner Health" if you are in AUS. Or if not you need equiv. to at least 10billion Acidpohilus and 10billion Bifidobacterium take one cap, twice daily away from food with water that is not chlorinated, and for at least 30 days.
Astragalus Forte as directed on bottle or Bovine Colostrum will help restore you immune system.
If mucus is still green in aday or so, see your Dr again.
