Persistent throat sensitivity after mononucleosis
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for some general insight about my recovery. A few months ago I had mononucleosis, and my recent tests confirm that I’ve recovered. However, since then I’ve been dealing with a persistent swelling in my throat, along with irritation and increased sensitivity that haven’t fully resolved.
The ENT specialist I saw linked these symptoms to my dust allergy, which causes rhinitis, and prescribed Bactoblis and Pafinur for 40 days. I’m following the treatment, but my throat still feels more sensitive than usual even though the infection has cleared.
I’d like to understand if a prolonged recovery with lingering throat symptoms is common after mononucleosis, and whether allergies can play a role in slowing down the healing process. I’m not looking for a diagnosis or treatment advice, just general experiences or insight.
Thanks to anyone willing to share.
