Ma'am
Relax it will settle.
These days people take more time to recover from even a simple throat infection , reason being general degradation of our health owing to poor food choices, food toxicities in terms of excessive consumption of processed/ ultra proceed food knowingly or unknowingly , environmental toxins , inactive lifestyle, stress etc etc.
