Chest infection

I've had a chest infection for three weeks plus. It's been niggling so went to the Dr in Friday. She prescribed a short sharp dose of antibiotics. 5 days worth. I'm now on day three and I'm coughing even more than ever with mucus. Is this a sign the antibiotics are helping or is my chest getting worse. The reason for going to the Dr was it was slightly worse after attempting to run

No temp. Just a cough which seems to be getting worse with the antibiotics

Feel for you OP, I'm on day 9 of a nasty cold and chest infection. It's not budging and I'm sooo miserable! Hopefully it'll pass soon.
