Doctor can examine: One's primary care doctor can evaluate to see if there has been allergies in the nose and sinuses, colds (viral infections), stomach acid reflux, a strep throat (bacterial and needs antibiotics), a sinus infection, mucus in the lungs, sinus symptoms related to other causes, pandemic COVID-19, etc... Since one can have one or more of these issues at the same time, a doctor's visit is recommended.
