Phlegm in throat
Have recovered from mild covid and absolutely no symptoms from 10 days after recovering. But I am getting continuous phlegm in the throat without cough. My oxy level is 98. Should I use any cough syrup or go for a ct scan?

Monitor your spO2, BP, temp, sugar.
If all within normal limits then no need to panic.
Post covid weakness, lethargy, cough persist for upto 1 month and then subside eventually with proper care and medication
Continue taking steam inhalation, luke warm water gargle, multivitamin
For cough take syrup. TUSQ- X EXPECTORANT 2tbsp twice daily
