Is it normal to still have a runny nose more than a month after getting COVID-19, even after taking Montair-LC for five days, or could it be a sign of a serious issue like a fungal infection, and what should I do next?
It is quite common to experience a persistent runny nose, or post-viral rhinitis, for several weeks after recovering from COVID-19 due to lingering airway inflammation. Please be reassured that a serious fungal infection is highly unlikely. While you tried Montair-LC (montelukast and levocetirizine) for five days, this duration might have been too short, or your symptoms may be non-allergic. I gently recommend using saline nasal sprays to soothe your nasal passages and consulting a primary care doctor or an ENT specialist.
