A cold and cough lasting 5 days without improvement with medicines is often due to a viral infection or ongoing irritation in the airways. Take proper rest, drink warm fluids, do steam inhalation, and avoid cold exposure to help recovery. Keep your throat warm, stay hydrated, and avoid taking more antibiotics on your own. If symptoms persist beyond a few more days, worsen, or you develop fever or breathing difficulty, consult a doctor for proper evaluation and care.
