Mucus or Phlegm
For last few days I feel congested in throat. I feel there is a lot of mucus and phlegm in my throat but I am not able to cough it out even if I try. It is worse when I try to sleep. I did consult a doctor and he prescribed me Amoxicillin and Azithromycin, with lupitus syrup and Alex losenges. However, there is no improvement. I have done an rtPCR test for covid, awaiting results. However I did not have a fever or any other symptoms.
I would like to know if there is any other test or remedies I can do
