Has anyone had these issues? I'm on day 12 after getting covid. Everything is gone except sinus pain, congestion and headaches.
I've been using 1% povidone-iodine nasal spray. Vit D, C, Zinc, Quercetin, Nigella sativa, Melatonin, turmeric, NAC

Ok thanks. I started out with some steroid when i had a bad sore throat which fixed it up. But it was just one dose they gave me at the clinic.
Should I just tell the doc "i need prednisone"
Usually they are dumb and don't what to do about anything
Mention the ER gave you a dose for inflammation and you felt better. Tell your doc a "doctor friend" also thought you could use a short dose.
Prednisone is more powerful than solumedrol and they should prescribe it as a Wean....smaller doses every day for a week or ten days
And yes. I am a doctor
Thanks doc! Good advice on getting them to prescribe it.
Primary docs may not feel comfortable giving Prednisone. An ENT doc would. You may need a referral
Referral to an ENT? I thought you just goto the emergency room?
edit :ENT is ear nose throat. FORGOT
Depending on insurance you may be able to go straight to ENT w/o any referral.
