Your symptom seems consistent with post nasal drainage if you still have congestion of nasal passages and sinuses. A late covid-19 related tracheobronchitis is still possible after 2 weeks. You can take cough syrup before going to bed and use steroid nasal inhaler if you still have congestion. I think all are related to Covid, not a new problem, good luck.

The symptoms are most likely related to COVID 19. Consider a teaspoon of honey or throat lozenges after discussion with your physician. If you have a cough,chest tightness or wheezing, treatment for Bronx may be indicated Bronchospasm may occur in association with COVID 19.
