I've got covid and the runny nose has now stopped and it's left me with a really thick congested nose and the snot is yellowy green.

I'm not sure if I should ring the drs or just see how it goes. I thought Green was infected but covid has taught me anything is possible!

Following with interest here as I'm in the same boat and the snot is getting thicker at night

Hope you feel better soon OP

I posted about this a few weeks ago when ds was ill, but had very few replies. I had never seen snot that colour before. He actually tested negative by pcr but I really doubt the result as Covid was going round his class at the time.

Green/yellow snot gets its colour from white blood cells:

Hope you feel better soon!
