Terrible sore throat post covid?

On April 23rd I began to get a sore throat, I tested positive for covid shortly after. Today is May 11, and most of my symptoms are gone. I have a little bit of congestion left but my sore throat has lingered. It really hasn’t been getting any better. I originally asked doctors before if they could give me any medicine for the sore throat but was told no because this was viral and not bacterial. 18 days later and my sore throat is still going strong. Is there anything doctors can do for me now?
