When should I consult for greenish secretions?

33-year-old woman2 years ago
Hello, I have had a virus for a week. The main problem is the cough which is really severe. 5 negative covid tests. Sinus pain and intense sore throat with loss of voice. When I get up in the morning, that's when I have the most secretions. They are greenish.

Hello ma'am, I'm sorry to read about your troubles!
It is normal that the secretions are thicker and darker in the morning; are they green all day?
Have you tried anything for your symptoms?

Hi, I do sinus rinse, warm water and honey, I take Advil cold and sinus, I see a lot of water and I use an orange pump!

Thanks for the feedback!
It seems that you are indeed doing what is recommended, including Sinus Rinse and drinking lots of fluids, keep it up! If the situation persists for more than 7 days without improvement, you should see a doctor as a precaution.
I hope I've been helpful and remain available if you have any further questions
