Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of excessive throat mucus and nasal congestion which is because of infection travel down the respiratory tract and affected whole area and leads to granular pharyngitis and sinusitis. Need not to worry. You should put xylomist nasal drops to prevent congestion. You should take chicken soup along with along with lemon tea. Avoid intake of outside food. I would suggest you to again consult your ENT specialist for proper examination. He/she may prescribe further antibiotic course and stronger antibiotics. Take combination of amoxicillin along with Levocetirizine. Take diet rich in vitamin C. Take decongestant nasal sprays containing mucinex for instant relief.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
