I've been dealing with a throat ulcer I got treated for about three weeks ago. I saw an ENT specialist and took all the prescribed medication. While the ulcer seems to be healed, I'm worried because I still can't talk or get my voice back. It's been over three weeks since this started and I'm really concerned. What should I do about this?

It's been about three weeks since I got over Covid, but I'm having this issue where one side of my nose keeps getting partially blocked off and on throughout the day. The side it happens on changes randomly. Plus, there's this slight feeling of mucus in my throat every now and then. Is this something I should be worried about, or is it pretty normal post-recovery?

It's not uncommon to experience lingering symptoms like nasal congestion and throat mucus after recovering from COVID. These can be part of post-viral recovery, but if they persist or worsen, its a good idea to consult a doctor to rule out any other issues.

Yes, there are non-surgical and natural approaches to managing vocal cord polyps, and consulting with specialists in India is a good idea. Non-surgical options include voice therapy, lifestyle modifications (hydration, avoiding irritants), and sometimes medication. Homeopathy and other alternative therapies are also explored by some. Specialized ENT (Ear, Nose, and Throat) doctors in India can provide comprehensive care and personalized treatment plans.
