It stays for weeks, it's an absolute bastard.

If you have green mucous it can be bacterial. I got antibiotics (amoxicillin) straight away and it’s started to clear it up within the 1st 2 doses. Yours might be too far gone for that. I speak from bitter experience, I get 2 or 3 of these chest infections every year. Never go to doctors but this time I wanted to try antibiotics.
