Viral symptoms such as congestion and cough may take weeks to disappear completely. If your daughter no longer has fever and she has been eating well with normal activities, she should be fine.

Nasal saline may relieve post nasal drip, congestion and related cough. If she is not improving, an oxygen saturation test, chest x ray and COVID-19 and Flu test may be repeated. Watch for shortness of breath and provide fluids and cool air mist humification.
