I've been dealing with congestion, a lot of phlegm, and a cough for about 10 days now. I took a COVID test right when these symptoms started, and it came back negative. I've been steaming about 6 to 7 times a day, but things aren't really getting betterthey're just staying the same. What should I do next?

I've been dealing with COVID for about a month now, and thankfully, it was mostly asymptomatic at the start. Lately though, I've been feeling this chest tightness or burning sensation, mainly in the evenings. Is this a normal thing to experience after having COVID, and what should I be doing about it?

That could be Gastritis,no need to worry avoid spicy foods visit Gastroenterologist for appropriate treatment.

I've been experiencing this issue where I cough up blood sometimes in the morning. I went to the doctor, and they said all my tests like blood work and X-ray look fine, even checked my bulgum. But I constantly feel like I have a cough stuck in my throat area. What could be causing this if all my reports are fine? Should I be worried about something else?

Tab azithromycin 500mg,orally,once daily for 3 days is advised to the patient.
