Mucus with small red string from nose

2022-09-12 03:00:34
Hi, I have stuffy nose from two days. It feels like it is dry inside after I used nose inhaler past two days. Today morning after i woke up i exhaled mucus from nose. It was yellowish green color with a small red string in it. No fever or cough so far. I am worried this could be black fungus Please advice Note: I had covid 8 weeks back and mild infection(not covid) 5 weeks back. I took antibiotics along with Deflozacort 6 for 5 days as prescribed by my doctor. I am worried this steroid might have compromised my immune system which might have lead to black fungus.
