I had a lung infection four months ago. After taking medication, I recovered, but ever since then, I've had loose mucus in my throat. Could you perhaps recommend the right medication?

Asked by Male, 45 · 2 days ago

Persistent loose mucus after a past lung infection is often due to residual airway inflammation or post-nasal drip rather than active infection, and it can occur with conditions like bronchitis or sinus-related drainage. Drink plenty of warm fluids, do steam inhalation, and a mucolytic syrup (to thin mucus) or antihistamine may help, but avoid taking antibiotics without need. If it lasts longer, worsens, or is associated with cough, fever, or breathlessness, consult a doctor for evaluation and proper treatment.
