Covid affects the respiratory system, it takes awhile for some to overcome the inflammation to the lung fields.

You might need a pulmonary consult and possibly a pulmonary function test. Best of luck to you and I hope your cough is better soon.

my pulmonologist has me on a steroid inhaler twice a day and a different one as a 'rescue' for uncontrolled boughts of coughing. My triggers are moving too fast, physical exertion, laughing, talking a lot, wearing a mask for long periods of time, weather changes-I look at the weather channel website for 'air quality index', I have more coughing when it is elevated. Knowing my triggers and a rescue inhaler help in minimizing my episodes.
