I've been dealing with this slight mucus at the back of my throat for a few months, but I don't usually cough because of it. However, every time I go swimming, I end up sneezing a lot and my nose gets really runny. I'm wondering if this is something I should be concerned about or if it's just a normal reaction.

View allIve been getting the flu shot from the same brand, Flu Quadri, every year without issues, but last year was different. After the shot, I felt my chest tighten up, had trouble breathing, and then woke up the next day with severe muscle pain all over. These symptoms quickly disappeared, but Im wondering if its safe to get the flu shot again this year. Should I only get it when Im feeling my best, or is it better to skip it altogether after what happened last time?
