I have a deep cough that burns in my chest after catching a cold. I am taking cough syrup. After how many days should I consult a doctor?

If you have a persistent cough that is causing discomfort in your chest after having a cold, it is recommended to consult a healthcare professional if you experience a fever or if the cough persists for more than three weeks. It is important to reduce the amount of mucus in your throat to help alleviate the cough. Using products like Sinus Rinse™ can help reduce mucus buildup and alleviate coughing.
