Pneumonia Aftermath?

About a month ago, I had pneumonia. It first felt like the flu, then I heard "crackling" around my chest area. I went to my doctor he checked my lungs etc. He said he new there was alot of junk in my chest, and though I had pneumonia. I went on antibiotics for around 4 days. It is normal to have alot of phlegm after pneumonia? I have been coughing it up everyday. No, it is clear not green or yellow. Or do you think I have a cold?
