Mucus Stuck In Throat, Bad Taste On Swallowing. What Could It Be?

In February I got the flu; and ever since than I ve had mucus , stuck in my throat , that won t seem to go away. At first, when I swallowed it had a bad taste, and sometimes a bad smell. Now its just mucus, no horrible taste or smell. I have a small fear of going to any doctor, but if i definitely have to, I will. So, could this be serious? What could it be?
