- What to do about a cough that persists after recovery from COVID-19? Coughing with sticky phlegm for a few months after acute COVID has been reported by many patients. There are no guidelines on what to do at this stage about this symptom, but I try to provide some ideas on what is going on and some simple actions which may help improve the cough.
There are many questions left to answer about the recovery process after coronavirus infection.

5 weeks ago I got Covid for the first time ever. I’ve gotten better but the dry cough won’t go away. I sleep fine with no coughing fits but when I wake up the cough returns within 1-2 hours and then I cough periodically all day. When I workout I can feel crap in my chest. It gets better when I’m done. Man this is so messed up
And as sucky as that is they do say exercising makes it worse,😢
Not only that, I've got an occasional mild sick feeling too. Not all days but only occasionally. It only got better when I stay active.

Hope that you have fully recovered 🙏🏽
@@pc24681 I am fully recovered. Thank you
I got mild COVID and the ongoing cough w phlegm, it went away within a month by taking vitamin c gummies, elderberry,turmeric, ginger water, cutting out sugar,drinking clove water, eating healthier food
Sounds like a death sentence! Respect!
How long did that take?
Was it a lot of phlegm? My daughter has been coughing up a lot of phlegm 3 weeks after Covid.
Every body is different so we all experience the symptoms differently mainly try to Google what enhances the immune system and instead of staying in bed try being more active since movement also helps

I didn’t get too sick from COVID initially but I developed a cough that lasted about 10 months, started out dry then became productive. About a month ago, it just went away abruptly.
was there any wheezing? i have had a cough with wheezing for 2 months now. I'm using salbutomol all day everyday to treat it.
I had covid 2 years ago and still have cough and wheezing. Im so worn out from this cough. I use pulmocort inhaler but seems it works less and less
@@sgradinar that is awful. are you able to work and do physically demanding jobs? Have you tried other medicines or treatments?
Same, post nasal drip, post covid 2 months. Manuka honey helps calm the cough a little.
@@dianereiser6417 I found a solution, 10000IUs vitamin D3 + 200mcgs vitamin K2 twice a day. Within 48 hours my symptoms were permanently relieved. After 5 days I now have a tiny occasional cough. It will be entirely cured within another week I imagine. I think I was probably vitamin D3 deficient that caused me to develop asthma after a bout of flu/covid. These high amounts of vitamin D3 and K2 are generally recommended only by a few sources of information on the Internet and are well over the official recommended levels. I think the pharmaceutical industry is corrupt and that is why recommended vitamin intake is below the correct , actual proper level.
Had long covid after having covid twice. Have had the cough off and on for 2 years.
try taking a teaspoon of turmeric daily mixed in a glass of water. has many benefits that help fight covid.
I just got tested positive to COVID-19. Man, it is tough. I had 102 deg fever, body ache, chill, stuffy nose, and fatigue. I just finished Paxlovid. I am drinking tea twice a day with cardamon, ginger, cinnamon, and clove.
I know this is late but how are you doing now? Did the Paxlovid help you?
Thanks for this video

thank you for your info.... I too have this maddening cough that doesn't go away and I can't get the clear mucus by coughing it up and out, no matter how hard I try. I have never been able to cough up mucus. My question is: is it bad to just swallow the mucus, as I do, will it eventually go away? It is clear and thin, but impossible to cough up? thx

Intermittent cough since april 2021 and still the same no improvement, allegra relief for a while but start again, cough stickiness in throat which make me cough and spit. Dr is raising hands some says from nose it’s coming some say from stomach and some say from weakness. What is the actual cause i dont know even they dont. Please help
Thank you Dr Stanel, I got post COVID cough and it is irritating . Using diffuser at work as well is helping my cough

I had covid but today I tested negative but I still have the cough and it bothers me. Thanks for your advice.
Do you still have the cough. Same for me
@@annettesoss2114 not anymore. I'm doing good now.
I am on day 13 from covid. This cough is the worse part. I sleep fine with no cough. After I'm awake for about an hour it comes back.
I am still coughing with colorless phlegm one month after covid and this is frustrating!
When i caught covid Dec 2021 the cough lasted me over a year. I had to be put on 2 different inhalers. Finally got back to normal & got covid again earlier this month & cough came back. Very aggravating. Back on both inhalers.
I personally think, /from my own experience/... that if, even after a year or more, sputum forms in the bronchi, residual covid infection is to blame, which settles where your body has weaknesses....and it needs to be re-treated even /after a year or two, /preferably with ivermectin
@@thetruth8053 did you personally take ivermectin?
It sucks.... My covid became negative but a week later I had this dumb cough ..it could be fine for a week than boom! I get this cough....I hope it leaves.... Thanks bro, I feel a little better though
yes first I had very bad headache, then very bad cough with lots of phlegm and it needs 2 weeks for me to fully recovered
@@MasterofPlay7my 9 year old has this now! 3 weeks after Covid she had a worsening cough that is now producing lots of phlegm

I had severe covid-pneumonia in May 2021. I was trached and on a ventilator for 8 weeks. I still have a chronic dry cough for 21 months now. no improvement
Same with my dad

I get mucous in my spit every time I’m tired.. over a year since having covid.

I have asthma and mild vocal cord paradoxical disorder, and I've noticed in the past day or so, I got covid last week and its going away accept for the cough which is getting worse, I have this... It sounds dry but wet at the same time, as odd as that sounds, and its like I get these weird little coughing fits. How do I stop these coughing fits? I think its both the vocal cord and asthma issue, but I'm not really sure how to stop it. My mother told me to be well-hydrated, and I've been working on that, but even when I drink a lot, the cough doesn't go away. Also, thank you for the video. :)

Just returned to work last week on Tuesday prior to that was out 2 weeks with covid and boy did it knock me down hard I had possibly everything that can happen to you when you get sick with it yet my wife nothing. Now I have a cough that comes and goes sometimes quite annoying when I'm trying to talk. I hope it goes away soon in time.
Did it go away?
Cluster beans vegitable will help for this dry cough tnx me latter ❤
Yes bro it will help u
I had covid for 11 days. The cough after was worse. Bringing up stuff but mostly stuck. Doc gave me antibiotics and steroids for 5 days. It worked coughing stopped and chest chest better. So covid left me with a chest infection
yes for me it needs 2 weeks for it to fully go away
Guess I should contact my doctor too
I think this is what's happening now. I just got antibiotics, benzonatate, and asthma pump. She said my lungs sounds clear but still going for x-rays.
@@Chic.Geek75 how are you feeling now?
My 9 year old is on zinnat antibiotics for 5 days now. What happened is 3 weeks after getting Covid her cough started getting worse and is now producing a lot of phlegm. We are on our 5th day and although the coughing has lessened there is still a lot of phlegm
I'm still battling a long-lasting COVID cough. I got infected in August 2023 on a cruise. Now it's late November and it's making me (and my husband) nuts. I think dehydration is an issue for me, so I'm going to make a concerted effort to hydrate better. Hopefully that helps. Thank you!
Same here. I had it last August too and the cough and mucous is driving me nuts.
How are the two of you doing? I've had.mine for a month and went in to be seen
Dr order a chest x-ray to rule out lung cancer. That was scary for him to say that
Waiting on those results
I am sure your results will be A-OK, @@abcede6421 ! As for my cough, it is much better now, thankfully. Drinking more water did seem to help.

I had covid in 2019 and self recovered no hospital, I just had a long covid caugh which is lasting over a month now, still coughing and sometime I go blank after that bad cough, any advice please?
will exercising worsen this? I'm 28 days after contracting covid. Really want to get back in the boxing gym again but they do high intensity workouts.

Thank you. I am only 1 week after Covid and also have Sjogrens Syndrome so the cough is troublesome. Its so bad I often wet myself and vomit. I know it's early and I will need to wait it out. I appreciate your help.

Tested positive for Covid yesterday for the first time, with pretty much all the symptons. Oh my gosh, it is horrible, i have never felt so unwell before. Last night was awful for me!
Hello hope that you have recovered 🙏🏽
Hiya, yess all recovered after 3 weeks! I have never felt so poorly though, it was a bad experience for sure
@@jonathanbarron8311 good to hear!
Any idea on how you caught Covid and was it like the Flu or worse?
@@pc24681 i think i caught mine when i went to London to watch a musical! I already had been coughing for weeks, but nothing had esculated further than that, until the next couple of days after returning from London!
@@jonathanbarron8311 ok i never experienced Covid because I don’t be exposed by lots of different people and I stay away from crowded places especially during the Flu/cold season 😷
hello doctor I am Manish from India.

Doc im having terrible sleepless night due to the cough with whizzing sound
same
Even iam facing since 1 yr...
i need to take antihastimine for that
I am using symbicort/ Budesonide, it works great. I have chronic asthma but using symbicort is life saver in just a second.
6 weeks and still coughing after becoming negative from covid, I'm gonna schedule a visit soon to the doc. I can't do anything physical.

I still have the cough I’m not as panicked now because I know what to do about it
Has your cough got better? I got Covid 5 weeks ago . Im better but I have a dry cough. It’s annoying and concerning
@@Thrillionaire. yes it finally got better after about a month and a half
I’m glad that your better when I got Covid the first time the cough lasted two months
@@emilymarett9826 I’m glad you’re well! I hope this cough goes away. Thank you!
@@Thrillionaire. it did finally I’ve had Covid twice in the beginning of 2022 and around Easter of this year
Fruits and veggies with water can also help

I had covid 4 weeks ago and since then I've had a constant dry cough I'm asthmatic too wich doesn't help but I've been given a form from my doctor to have a chest X-Ray just for peace of mind etc
I am still coughing with colorless phlegm one month after covid and this is frustrating!
@@ivanyu3930 My cough isn't too bad now I didn't have the chest X-Xray because I was busy at the time but I feel alot better now than I did when I wrote that comment I've also been using my inhaler more than usual too which has also helped alot
How was ur x-ray? How are you feeling?

I had a cough for nine months.
Had one for about 10 months and it finally stopped and abruptly. Very weird.
How did you get your cough to finally go away? Or did it go away on its own after 9 months?
@@ashley_p825 I’m not sure if it either run it’s course and went away on its own or the bronchodilator had something to do with it. I didn’t use the latter for very long so not sure if it helped, but it might have.
Had to pause this video because the cough caused me to vomit. I have been negative for covid for awhile now.

@@hardikdarji3016 have you ever had Covid?
Yes bro in 2020
Again 15 days back i suffer with this cough because of ice-cream and cold water
@@hardikdarji3016 was it mild , moderate or severe and is it like the Flu for you?
Dr. Advice No matter what is your health problem.
1. Drink more water
2. Wear N95 mask
3. Must be Acid Reflux
4. Stress
5. Don’t Smoke
6. Exercise
7. Lose weight.
So I watched a video of a Doctor who got Long Covid and much better than this mediocre doctor. I have a PhD and I go to the doctor and it is always the same mindless repetition. I am 67 , will probably outlive most of my doctors (few dead already) All of them I could beat to death- have to restrain myself as I listen to their same crap they endlessly repeat. As I said others are much more useful.
what video? thank you (:
Show me a peer review study that any mask works. Thank you.
I had covid the mild of July 2022 and negative covid test July 24 2022 I have dry cough not often
When had covid I had never fever chills my temperature in 90s
I was tried for awhile and I and diarrah for 3 days and little appetite and dry cough no other COVID signs
I don't have my covid 19 shots because religion believes
Are you okay now?
