I've recently gotten over COVID-19, but now I'm dealing with some post-COVID issues and I'm not sure what to do. I'm experiencing nasal congestion and occasional headaches. During my recovery, I was on steroids40mg for five days, 20mg for two days, and then 10mg for another two days. Afterwards, I took voriconazole 200mg for four days as per the advice I received. The nasal congestion feels really uncomfortable, and honestly, it's starting to scare me a bit. What should I do about this uneasiness?

View allI've been dealing with a cold for almost two months now and it's getting really frustrating. I'm doing steam inhalation every day and using a nasal spray that my doctor prescribed, so my nose isn't blocked at the moment. But it feels like there's something stuck in my throat that Im constantly trying to spit out. Every time I do, it feels like there's a connection to my ears, which is really uncomfortable. On top of that, I've got an eye infection that just won't go away. I've been on medication for a month now with no real improvement. Could you give me some advice on what might be going on?

I'm experiencing some ear discomfort that seems to flare up mostly at night. I've also been having this persistent cough and feel like my hearing isn't as sharp as it used to be. Could you give me some advice on what I should do about this?
Start using ear drops like Otek AC or Otocin O 2 drops 3 times a day, an anti-allergic like Cetrizine tablet at night and if you are not hypertensive, a decongestant like Otrivin nose drops 2 drops 3 times. Otherwise, steam inhalation is safe! You can take an analgesic like Combiflam, if the pain is severe! Next Steps Consultant an ENT if the symptoms or cough persist

I'm really concerned about this polypoidal mucosal thickening in my left maxillary sinus that showed up on my MRI scan. I've already tried antibiotics and antihistamines for a month, but they didn't help. I'm worried and wondering what other treatments or options might be available. Could you advise on what else I can do to address this issue?
If it is causing severe pain or symptoms like cold and headache,have to undergo FESS for its resection.
