Question 1

I'm feeling really embarrassed because every time I eat, especially at breakfast, I get this buildup of phlegm in my throat that I need to spit out. It's been happening for a while and it's awkward for people around me. I've been treated for GERD with medicines like Rabiym DSR, and for allergies with Monteluksut and Fex. But it still doesn't seem to be getting better. Do you know what might be causing this or how I could improve the situation?

Accepted Answer

The presence of black streaks in phlegm, especially in the morning, can be a common post-COVID-19 symptom, possibly due to lingering inflammation, mucus, or fungal growth, and since your CBC, chest X-ray, and previous D-Dimer tests are normal, your pulmonologist's advice to monitor and not pursue further testing unless symptoms worsen or new ones develop is reasonable; however, if you experience increased frequency, thickness, or color change of the phlegm, difficulty breathing, chest pain, or fever, seek immediate medical attention to rule out potential complications like pulmonary embolism, bronchiectasis, or opportunistic infections.
