- Post nasal drip, its severity and its symptoms can vary from person to person but just what is post nasal drip and how can it be treated? We spoke with Dr. Andrew Florea at Redlands Community Hospital who explains post nasal drip and it's treatment options.
It only seems to happen when I lay down at night.
Gargle hot water with salt 4 to five times a day..I did it for two days. It really worked after one day
Update?
im going to try that
i cough my head off all day . i take allergy medicines.. i take nasal sprays nothing works.
God help us,i thought it was HIV SO i took the test but nothing,am really suffering from this and i can't really concentrate
Oi have this PND for many years, it is awful.
I don’t drink milk,
I eat eggs though.
I fast often. nothing seems to help, it is all day every day!!
May God Bless him,
you can tell he’s passionate & well learned
on this issue that effects so many including myself.
This is so annoying I feel like I’m dying whenever I try to sleep
Same problem. I have to go on disability
Same here ,,, what’ did u do about it ....
@@macurban7946 did you have luck getting on disability for this condition?
Any fix?
@@blazeee4775lol i was having pnd symptoms but turned out it was just strep throat
Thank you so much I bought some citrizine tablets they are not helping for now but I tried to clean my room let's wait
this was super helpful!! thank you!
"It's actually very successful if you have the right diagnosis ($$$) and understanding ($$$)....". I've spent over half a century with this, I couldn't say the amount of cash I've thrown at it in desperation to get some relief. Yet here I sit again at midnight unable to lay down without choking to death on mucus. Yeah, really treatable.
Do you have adenoids
@@heythere6983 it's been two years since I wrote this, my life has changed a great deal and I actually did resolve this, or rather, it resolved as a result of changes I made to my diet and activity. I quit eating processed foods and eat only whole foods now, took up weightlifting and cycling, and as a result lost a good amount of weight. I also quit being a victim, that helped A LOT. When these old posts come up they make me cringe but they also serve to remind me that much of my misery, in my own case ONLY and not speaking for any other person, were the results of the bad choices I made and my refusal to take responsibility for taking care of my body properly. I now think what was causing this, again, for just me, were allergic reactions to all the junk food I was eating. If you are suffering with this I hope you find your own solution because it was nightmarish for me for most of my life but also, like many in the US where I live, I was raised eating a garbage diet and had to educate myself and change.
@@heythere6983yes I do. 😊
I sleep in a chair with mouth tapped. Works. Use saline nasal spray before bed.
I suffer with this all the time
Give me a med that STOPS the drip.
All these videos are so confusing with all kinds of explanations and potential treatments....
Yet Nothing works. That’s why people deal with this for years and years.
Is it gone now?
You are correct! I avoided surgery by trying everything, researching and making lifestyle changes. 1st. Now your allergies. 2. Minimize exposure 3. Change your diet- most important for long term success. 4 exercise 5. Have faith! 6. Don't lose hope! 7. Stay disciplined and u will see results. Humans have lived on earth for 1,000s of yrs.. they ate different than what we eat today. It's no secret that you are what you u eat and food can really make a big difference. To stop the drip you must know the cause! Start with finding cause and learning about how to eliminate foods that cause inflammation and mucous. Food that builds your immune system.
@@lsquare2080 i eat healthy and still get it. must be something triggered with brain
meds is needed.. or a herbal remedy which switches off that part of the brain that makes mucus
buy yourself an air purifier so you wont get it. its triggers so you cant get away with it as per the doctor. prevention is better than cure.
@@joyvee7432
Did it. No luck
very informative!
I rinse my nose with a tea made with chamomile and a pinch of salt and the problem gets way better.
thanks
Do chamomile smell ?
Hey, did it go away?
I suffer from constant feeling of phlegm in my throat which leads to constant throat clearing. Easiest and quickest and safest trick for me is just to use nose spray.
I've had the problem for years. My Dr tested for allergies and found nothing. I sing badly at church and I want to participate. About spray: it can't be long-term, though, can it?
@@rachelgarcia4301you might have a deviated septum
Which nasal spray?
solution?
Thank you 🙂
Tried everthing nothing helps.
Has anyone else experienced this along with excessive saliva build up? I swear my throat is clogged with mucus and my mouth is watery 24/7
Yeah, I had that in the past. My mouth was plenty of saliva, so bad :(
@@fuleienchina4753 did you do anything to get rid of it or did it go away on its own
Is it gone now ?
Yeah. With bad breath.
Did it go away?
My husband suffers terribly from this. He would go into coughing fits and turn beet red because of the PND. He does have allergies which contributes to it and it's worse after eating for some reason. He was given an inhaler which has helped immensely and we changed his allergy meds.
What kind of allergy meds is he taking? And why does the inhaler work for PND
Yes it's worse after eating. Same here
Sounds like high histamine and your body response to it. Has your husband figured anything out?
How is he doing presently ?
high mucus amount = high histamine foods ur consuming .
Stop eating dairy!!! You don’t know how much of a difference this makes oh my
You're probably just allergic to dairy if that worked
I've tried that. Didn't work for me.
im going to try that
Brertt yes this is true. But dairy also makes mucus thicker which can make it more difficult to clear (increased coughing) so it’s worth a try.
Not true. Went vegan. STILL doesn't work
Un discurs ieftin, efectiv degeaba. Daca ar avea o minima onoare, acesti medici ar trebui sa recunoasca ca aceasta afectiune îi depasesc total, pur si simplu nu stiu sa trateze o astfel de problema medicala. Pentru oamenii care sufera de aceasta afectiune printre care ma numar si eu, singura speranța poate fi un medic de pe o alta planeta. Sinuzita, rinosinuzita, deviatie de sept, alergii, raceli, gripe, etc, nici ei nu stiu prin ce sa-si mai justifice neputința profesionala. Rusinos!
On top of that it can go to our throat and cause tonsil stones
My nose never stops running. Down my throat and out my nose. Its gross. I have allergies and i take medication for it, but I’m not always exposed to what I am allergic to. Help me! It drips right out of my nose. Everyday! When I was picking my engagement ring out 28 years ago it dripped right on the counter! That’s my life that’s what it does. I’ve done every nose spray there is and it has not helped. I also get vertigo often. At times it can make my life debilitating
hugs, that's my life until I use rhinocort, I‘ve been using it fo 15 years already, the key is use it right after you wake up, stay on bed until you feel your nose absorbed it already and get up use cold water wash face
hopefully that can help you!
@@jingpan3674 does your post nasal drip gone now?been suffering on it rn:(
@@mayenicolleandres8025 a little bit better, but not all gone, I found it helpful to wear a face mask and a wind protecting glass can help a lot when going out on a windy day
How could your husband resist you? Does it drip into food when you're cooking, too?
Look into surgery
Poast nasal drip happens to me every night and prevent me from sleeping well as keep sneezign and coughing. I took Xyrtec or Allergen
Omg I feel the same how did you cure it.. I keep sneezing and irritates my throat...
I just get a cough until it kinda just goes away. Have you figured something that works for you?
I live in the Caribbean, and I've noticed a link to sinus activity (sneezing and runny nose) and change in weather conditions. Whenever I start sneezing, the clouds start gathering. It seems that atmospheric pressure/change in weather conditions is a factor.
Yes, I have the same symptom. My sinus get worst during Humid or cloudy weather.
yup season transition

What worked for me was going gluten free, no joke. These treatments are bad because all they want from you is money, just go gluten free for 2 weeks and see for yourself.
what gluten free food do you recommended? and how does it help with post nasal drip?
I drank a entire bottle of cough medicine did not work
Mandeville Food critic i have really bad sinuses. I know how you feel. nothing gets rid of problems.
What was in the cough medicine? You might want one with an expectorant.
You sippin lotta drank boy
No discussion of possibility of silent reflux.
No allergies, no other triggers. Constant cough. Stopped after taking expensive meds. Started only after meals.
Okay I got a breakthrough for some...if you have it ...go to doctor and see if it's bacterial ..if so ask for antibiotics...best one is amoxicillin clavalunate ..but you have to use it exactly as prescribed and full prescribed dosage ...don't stop it half way even if you get well before finishing dosage ..GO ALL THE WAY WITH THE DOSAGE....or the bacteria will come back and take it timely as prescribed and it will kill the bacteria causing the post nasal drip....now with amoxicillin you have to take yogurt with it because it doesn't know how to distinguish the good and bad bacteria so it will kill both good and bad and so it will kill the good bacteria in gut and you will get stomach issues ...so take yogurt with it so as to replenish the good bacteria in your gut ....I got a relief and slept for a full night ..I had been struggling with sleep coz of post nasal drip for 27 days ...one time went two days without sleep ..but thank God for the antibiotics and Jesus .....now if it's not bacterial and the antibiotics don't fix it ...go to an ear ,nose doctor to figure if something else is wrong
I need to go to this doctor ... cause the doctor i went to just gave me a nasal spray and it didn’t do crap for me :/
Were you able to get help?? I am having the same issue. Thank you!!
Did you want it to do crap for you? Try a laxative instead.
Take salt water steam. I have allergic rhinitis and sinus infection. This really helps. Also spray saline water into your nose. Boil salt water, let it cool down and spray it. Stay away from allergens. Drink a glass of warm water in the morning everyday. This will help with sinus, digestion as well as immunity.
Ayushi Ghosh thank you!!
Lynn M. Sorry I’m late to reply but no I didn’t. Still struggling. It sucks. But I started taking oral probiotics and it has helped with some of the symptoms :)
The nose is clear of any mucus, actually it´s more on the dry side, but my throat is full of this sticky white/transparent mucus all of the time (the throat starts to hurt after to much trying to get it out).
It started slowly, 3 years ago. I visited 5 different ENT Doctors, they tried everything they could, end result was: i have nothing .
CT Scans, allergy tests, reflux medicine , bacterial laboratory checks, etc..
I tried every single nasal spray on market, steam inhalations and ultrasonic nebulisers, sinus rinsing, i have even moved away from home for like 4 months, nothing changed , nothing helped.
Can it be Candida albicans ??? hidden on the upper side of the throat or the back end of the nostrils ?????
No one took that in account till now
Thank you people !!
Is it gone now?
Thank you this was super helpful! I have similar issue for almost more than 10 years. still, I am in trouble even now as a result of clearing my throat and sticky stuff and mucus all time it affects my chest congestions, and coughing.

Thanks Doc. What are your thought son flushing with salt, bicarb soda combined with (1:10) Hydrogen peroxide?
Peroxide burns terribly. I once accidentally once rinsed my nose with it.
Same issue. Any advice?
Can’t hardly run because I gag it up then want to puke idk if anyone else is like this. I feel like I’m alone
You can make a spray solution that works good with distilled water, and salt. (Combine 1/2 tsp salt to 30ml distilled water and shake well. Transfer the solution into a clean empty bottle used for nasal spray.
Direction for use: Inhale two to three sprays into each nostril. The salt solution will burn the nasal passages slightly. If burning is intense blow your nose and discontinue. This can also help for a stopped up nose.
thank you i will try this.....also gonna try ginger & garlic lol
@@San-jose-Ruussh Did it work ??
@@monishmayekar5197 no sorry I forgot lol I still need to....my azelastine spray from the doctors has been solid for me for years now
Is allergic rhinitis same as post nasal drip? Thank you.
Allergic rhinitis often causes post nasal drip. It can be a symptom of allergic rhinitis
Why doesn't any head and neck doctor who specializes in this field understand that for some people, the problem starts in the ….. EARS. Not the Sinus ! None of the doctors I've seen have a clue to the cause of the problem or remedy.
Same here.
Exactly I had an ear ache now I have this
Exactly !
Eyes nose ears mouth they are all interconnected
They’re all connected. The first ENT dismissed the broken nose I have and his neurologist colleague dismissed the MRI. The second doctor I saw didn’t even need a camera for the diagnosis and he is going to take care of it. Hec even his nurse knew immediately. That is how simple it is and how easily it can be diagnosed.
Could also be silent acid reflux. 😇❤️🙏😇
i've had severe post nasal drip for more than 25 years .I have non allergic rhinitis . seen doctors but nothing works
Same here
Same
What if the post nasal drip is not from an allergic reaction but from a deviated septum?
I also have that
Same
Well what's cure I tried every thing nothings works went to ent doctors nasal sprays dosnt work
Have you tried claritan and ridding your room of any potential allergies such as dust?
@@Someonelikekanye It's technically impossible to get rid of everything in your room
Hi is the issue gone now? If so how long did it take? Thanks.
@@jayclutch6533 hey does your pnd gone now?
I’ve had my post nasal drip for about 11 months now, I need help bad. Wake up every morning with a clogged throat, tried about everything including septoplasty because the origin of the issue was septal deviation, is there anything I can do from here. It’s been two months since my surgery and I was told I won’t see full results for around 4 months.
Update?
I had fluid in my left ear. I was put on steroids. It took two rounds of the meds to clear up the fluid but now I have post nasal drip. When will this end? This started as soon as the seasons changed from summer to fall. Now it's winter and scratchy throat with the post nasal drip. Glad the fluid in my ear is gone.
I had that too, I just sticked a wet napkin in there, it stopped clogging. Then I forced myself to yawn to drain the canal
@@kanorcubes329 do you have pnd?any suggestions?
I have this nearly everyday for hours and hours affects my swallowing now throat so dry i want to ask you all can acid refux cause this as i am suffer from this as well can get to the sinus's.
Hi brother have you get medicine am just like yt my throat are so dry please tell me
Now how it is, i have the same issue, now i decided to take , SLIT.. If you have any suggestion kindly reply me.
The only thing I found that stopped mine was prescription codeine cough syrup, but I only had it once in a year or so . Another thing that helped me was to not drink any fluids , and spit up any mucus or saliva that was produced and it eventually dried up and slowed down .
How long did u have it for? 1 month?
How do you not drink any fluids? That doesn’t make sense to me
PND doesn’t make me cough but makes my stomach feel something awful.
@@Millennial_Matriarchits because alot if it gets swallowed, try to eat more and get away from the allergens
I have Post Nasal Drip right now, and I've been having a TERRIBLE time sleeping. I'm drinking a ton of water and using saline spray. Going to try gargling with salt water, too.
Is it gone now?
@@jayclutch6533 Yes it is, thank the Lord. It was horrible. I took an antihistamine (Xyzal) and Tagamet nightly, in case GERD had something to do with it. I also drank tons of water, used saline spray and Flonase, and did just a bit of Mucinex. It went away after maybe 3 weeks.
@@Rose0004 happy for you that it’s gone. I’ve been suffering for 5-6 weeks now. I’m on mucinex which seems to only help but not fully clear it. I’m going to try what you did
@@jayclutch6533 I hope you get better soon! It's a miserable thing to have! I saw a doctor who told me to do nasal sprays above all else, so I did Flonase twice a day, but I did the saline spray probably a million times a day. That REALLY helped me most of all IMO, but the antihistamine and acid reducer helped, too! Good luck!!!
@@Rose0004 thanks.
Can post nasal drip causes bad breath from mouth as well as nose
I thinkdo get solution
Dude, I have been suffering with that condition for probably around 2 years. It sucks. I notice the claritan with flo nase mixture really helps. I’m just not consistent enough. Either way though it seems like I do it for a week or two, it goes away, and then eventually comes back. Must be related to diet and allergies
I have a post nasal drip and bad breath from it dude if u have any solution plss tell me
This is happening to me lately. It started from February and won't go away. I wake up from coughing a few times almost every night. I suspect it's the spring pollens but what can I do 😔

A saline nasal spray works pretty good. If you’re a smoker then it will just get worse.
I keep asking my parents to take me to a doctor but they won't listen.
Raccoon Man some doctors ca be stupid tbh
I have found using Zrytex stops mine. Gargle with warm salt water helps too.
Try neilmed sinus rinse
Doctors don’t listen either . You are not missing out on much.
Hi is the issue gone now? If so how long did it take? Thanks.
Can post nasal drip also lead to blood in your spit in the morning?
Yes, it has for me.
I’ve had post nasal drip after surgery for years and it is getting worse as I live in a humid zone, it’s a terrible thing! it’s so embarrassing to make that throat clearing noise all the time.
Do you have adenoids
@@heythere6983 I had surgery for both adenoids and deviated septum
I'm pretty sure this is what I have because I've been using a nasal decongestant spray everyday for 4 years, but my primary care doctor is scaring me saying that it might be cancer. I go see ENT doctor soon. Hopefully it's not cancer
wishing you luck man

@@thebest-dg4pv thats so true lol. well i know i’m allergic to cats, dogs, dust and sequoia trees or something weird like that lol.

Air conditioning too cold always triggers pnd 😢
I wish there was a permanent cure to it .... I feel like I am gonna have a cardiac arrest .... literally makes me cry
I got mine 6 weeks ago. But i am not giving up. I am doing researches now of how to get rid of it. I tried sucking garlic in the mouth for 30 minutes ( because garlic is antibiotics, kills bacterias and infections), put coconut water in mouth and gargle and spit out (coconut kills candida). Do researches on proteolytic enzymes : serrapeptase, bromeline. Wobenzyme. Black cumin oil, oregano oil. Do test on epstein barr virus. Do the test of your mucous for streptococcus, stafilacoccus, candida, fungus etc. take antiinflammatory medicine. Do researches on Reishi, cordiceps
I got mine from the virus. The virus gave my sinuses inflammation apparently. So the solution must be from killing the inflammatory virus or infection
I've had it for the last year and none of these work for me:
Steroids
Antibiotic
Neti Pot - all this did was make my mucous taste salty
Fluticasone Propionate
Fexofenadine Hydrochloride
Sudafed
Occasionally, stinging nettle root will provide relief, but only temporarily
This is awful
:(
Update?
It’s your home making you sick most likely.
Just rinse your nose with salt water every day without fail. It'll slowly get better over time. Get an allergy test and stay away from those allergens which comes out in the test results. My body is very allergy prone. Dust, pollens, fungus, sheep wool, some fabrics.. these are in my list of allergens. I take measures to not use them or be around them. Also drink a glass of warm water every morning. Buy eucalyptus oil and put it in steaming hot water and inhale it. These all work for me.
@@ayushighosh20 it's nearly impossible to eradicate all allergens unless you live in a brand new built home.

Hey, how are you? Were you finally able to get better? Your condition sounds almost same as mine, I've gone to many doctors but they could never fix it for good. They couldn't figure out what went wrong. I always feel there's mucus stuck somewhere in between my throat and nose, and I constantly have to cough to clear my throat. It started 2 years ago, and didn't stop ever since. Let me know how you're doing now 🙁

Post Nasal drip is horrific! This Dr says the right treatment is successful.. seems like every where you look post nasal drip with polyps is a medical condition that those that suffer only know's it's annoyance/torture. Living in a bubble I think from experience and research is the only treatment. I would like to know what does he recommend? I am sure I will need several thousands of dollars to hear him give me a prescription of immune suppressants and steroids and eventually allergy shots. If that doesn't work surgery with no guarantee/temporary relief. I wonder who the top specialist of post nasal drip/nasal polyps is?
Hi is the issue gone now? If so how long did it take? Thanks.
Yes, I am feeling a lot better. It took me several months to make the lifestyle adjustments I needed to feel better. Knowing your allergies is the 1st step. Avoiding/minimizing your exposure is crucial. Wearing face mask during covid has helped especially during Oak season. I am allergic to Mold and Oak Trees living in Fl so that was a challenge. Changing your diet is a must if you really want to see changes. I cut down on dairy products. I drink mostly water. Water with lemon in the morning, grain free cereal with fruits for breakfast. Cut down/eliminate grains/bread. Paleo diet for lunch & dinner helped me. Ex Salmon with salad, Honey Baked Chicken with salad, lots of fruits! Nasal Flush before bed. Vitamins, ester c, earths blend multi, now quercetin with bromelain, l- lysine. Remove bad sugar from diet as much as u can. No sodas/wines, processed foods/cereals. Cetrizine HCL 10mg in the morning is the only med I'm taking right now about 10 months out of 12. I have avoided the surgery and feel 90% to 100% better. Faith in God helps, dicipline, decreasing your stress level and exercising. Good Luck! I will be posting a video of my experience soon. Nasal Polyps is a real bad experience that very few if any Dr. Understands.
@@lsquare2080 is certinze good for nesal swelling at night?
Thanks
Anytime the pollen count is high and I get the sniffles I get the drip my throat is sore for days and no medicine works.
Same here.
I've had this really bad for 2 years. It's a post nasal drip that switches from right side of the throat to left side throughout the day. Feels like I'm swallowing a bead of something everything I swallow and no matter how many times I swallow it doesn't go down. I have to hack the mucus up out of my throat over and over again until it settles down. When I eat anything it makes it worse and whenever I eat little bits of food stick in my throat and get inhaled into the vocal chord area(I think) and then I really start having to cough and hack up mucus for hours. Any ideas? Does this sound familiar to anyone?
Any update
I’m choking on phlegm that’s stuck in my upper throat area. It cannot be run down by fluids. I haven’t slept in almost 48 hours because of it. 😭😭😭
There is an underlying infection responsible, which needs to be identified, properly treated and fully eradicated. If you or anyone else reading this would like proper guidance, please feel free to reach out.
I’ve had it for 6+ months
Gargle with salt water 4 times a day. It will dissolve a lot of the mucus. Try it in combination with a nasal spray. Hope it helps. There is no harm in trying it because its just salt water. I've tried it and it does work for me. Goodluck my friend.
I've had it for 4 years and have just accepted it. Hardly notice it anymore, just clearing my throat about 500 times every day. Probably from my slightly deviated septum who knows. I give up
I feel the same I've had it for almost 7 months.. It's worst at night clearing my throat constantly... How did you cure it? And also I keep sneezing and it irritates my throat 🤧😔

You could be allergic to dust mites which tend to infest bedding. They are microscopic, so you cannot see them. Is your mattress old? Do you wash your sheets in hot water once a week? Do you keep the floor vacuumed and the area around your bed dusted?

what about your sense of taste and smell , does it affect it
try "Livostin" it's an Antihistamine nasal spray 100% Better than pills .
Believe me if you still have PND try it it's live changer
@@karinavisser7708 is it gone now?any suggestions?
I went to the allergist because of a chronic cough for 12 years, I don't have any allergies. I go to the doctors and they say that it's Gerd, it absolutely is not. I'm sure it's postnasal drip but I don't know what causes it or how to get rid of it.
It's silent Gerd... look it up.. get off sugar and dairy... do you need tk lose weight? Dont eat too close to bed time
@@fredfells209 I've done all that and everything you can think of for many years. Gluten free, sugar-free, caffeine-free, I've been on the carnivore diet, I've been on vegan diet, I've slept elevated for a year I did the apple cider vinegar thing. The list goes on and on.
@@fredfells209 oh and I don't need to lose weight, I have 8% body fat I work out constantly.
@jasonmelo9379 i had a chronic cough no mucus and it was because of silent gerd... taking acid blockers like Nexium for about a week got rid of my cough
@@fredfells209 I've taken every PPI you can think of for many years
Do pnd cause bad breath?
Yes. My bad breath started when I had pnd. I have it for 2yrs. Until now
He doesn't mention what drugs are effective for this problem.
@David Martin Portmann I use the Equate version of Flonase. Same ingredients.
Why is it more common in Southern California?
Craig Smith probably bc of alot of grass/trees/flowers thus give out pollen and ppl are allergic. Thats my guess.
I’m in nor cal, it’s a thing here too
For post nasal drip,
Do warm saline mouth rinse twice daily.
Avoid late night dinner, gastric reflux might trigger it. So have dinner much early than you go to sleep.
Steam inhalation.
If the condition don't subside after 4-5days consult a doctor and take medication.
You don't know anything, it can last for decades
these methods don't help the condition for those who have it chronic and severe
@@doleydoley3499 I had suffered this issue..I know how frustrating it is... after taking medication and following the mentioned procedures it helped me ....I wasn't giving "doctor advice"..I was saying it helped me so shared it coz might work for someone who is suffering the same way ....

ive had it for as long as i can remember, im going to inquire about balloon sinuplasty
I've had for about 6 years now lol
Mine was bad and ruining my voice a lot during the first one. I'm on month 5 and a half and I don't lose my voice anymore. But it still feels somewhat sore sometimes. Hopefully we all get over this soon

Is it gone now?
@@mayenicolleandres8025 Hi girl, it is better now but not gone! I do have to say I got it after a nose surgery so that was the trigger. If it came out of nowhere for you it will 100% just leave out of nowhere. These are the things I did tho that may helped me:
- Every morning 1 pill and night 1 pill off Serrapeptase 250,000
- Every morning 3 pills off Guaifenesin
- take a hot shower every morning and evening, don’t blow your nose too much
- Sleep with the window open
- Get a humidifier for during the day/night (this is not a must, you choose it yourself)
- allergy pills
- EAT HEALTHY!!!! Gluten/sugar/dairy free (try this for a month to see a difference)

Momen, enforcemen, governmen, represen.

The "L" in salmon is also not pronounced xD #ComeOnEnglish

It was the pills from the doctors.
Neti pot before bed, you’re welcome
Would you rather treat the symptom or treat and eradicate the underlying cause?
U have to eat very healthy
My Doctor is absolutely useless. Been telling him about this for years and he just keeps prescribing random meds. Not once has he recommended to see a specialist...Going to switch doctors...
Its fukin annoying makes my stomach sick and my nose in my throath
I have had this for 3 years so far , i found that smoking a half cigarette(lowest nicotine possible ) in the morning helps to dry my throat and decrease the coughing (don't smoke more cause you might get addicted) , yes so far nothing helped me except steroids but they have tons of side effect , this might work for you give it a try
Outdated information!
I have suffered from migraines, have been punched, kicked, swept off the floor, had my finger crushed by a rat trap, shin opened when a armoire fell on it, fallen down concrete stairs with my spinal vertebrae hitting each edge, fallen off a tree to land on a nail, got hit by cars several times riding my bicycle in NYC, been jumped by a mob and punch right in face and and seen stars. I have pulled off my finger nails due to injury, jammed my fingers playing dodgeball, got hit in the head with a pipe backstage, chased to get robbed, shot at with pellet guns, hypothermia from snorkling in cold water, poked in the eye twice with sharp sticks, suffered from ingrown toe nails, pulled my groin muscle, strain muscles in forearm, smashed my index finger, have tennis elbow from 20yrs of moving heavy furniture up and down stairs, strained the muscles on my back when a customer helping turned the wrong way, smashed my shin into a uhual hitch, been hit in the head with a sky rocket, burned on my wrist with a fire stick , got a few black eyes; busted lips, swollen ribs, loose teeth and various other .... Post Nasal drip is the worst ever!
Oh my Goodness!! I hope this is just a brilliant piece of Comedy!! I am still gagging on mucus in my throat but this helped me from ending it all! Would love to hear back. ; )
@@lynnm.2019 I am still learning everything I can to get rid of this plaque. See an ENT docter. Get the scope up your nose and pray you don't have lots of polyps. 2nd get an Cat scan of your sinus in your face : ) Your hocus pocus dr. Might tell you u need surgery, steriods or other drugs and not mention or want to spend time with you telling you why you got it or how to prevent it. Finding a good Dr. Is like getting eating by a shark in fl. I was lucky my dr. Prescribed me a book. I thought he was crazy at first and just wanted me to suffer but now I am understanding why he did it..An allergy test is the first thing you should do since you want to be aware of all your allergies. Then you want to minimize as much as possible your exposure. You also need to change your diet if you want to see improvement. Start with getting rid of diary products. Substitute milk with soy milk. Decrease your sugar intake. Increase green consumption. You should be eating more greens than anything else. Salads, avocados, onions, peppers. Stay away from corns and veggies in cans or frozen. Fresh is the best. 2nd go for fresh fruits that has less sugars Lemon with water when u wake up. Lime later in the day. Grapefruit helps your fire throat. Pineapples, green apples, blueberries and other berries. Less McDonald's and other fast food. Minimize bread intake. Processed food doesnt help you. Drink lots of water. You have 2 choices. Surgery with steroids and other meds possibly for life or change your diet and go the natural approach and pray to God will help get rid of the nasal polyps/post nasal drip. I will post books that will give you more information. Lots of quackery on you tube about nasal polyps. If you give a car the wrong oil it will start to fall apart. No different than us Humans. If we eat garbage food and expose ourselves to toxins it will catch up to us. Humans lived in nature for thousands of yrs. Do you think they had allergies like we do today? I just left my state and went up to Georgia for 3 days and felt better. Why.. I developed a severe allergy to Oak Trees. My new home state is surrounded by Oak Trees and mold. I have severe allergy to both.. Been here for 7yrs and I know noticed how little by little my symptoms got worts. I spent so many yrs in the woods and never had this issue. Why now? I am still working on trying to understand the when, why, how and etc. Take notes of when it gets better/worst. Your notes will help u. Don't give up and when you have sucky days, months or possibly yrs..just imagine how much worse it can be. I love Mcdonalds, Burger King, French Fries, chocalate chip ice cream, sugar, white bread. Its not easy! Who ever tells you that is lying.. im actually thinking about wanting a burger right now.. it sucks! But I hate the polyps and post nasal drip and I'm gonna defeat it. As you can see rambling is also a good therapy. So talk it out 2! Lol.. to be cont..
@@lsquare2080 Well friend, if rambling is good therapy then I should be the picture of mental health! LoL! After a course of antibiotics, buying a humidifier and over 200 dollars worth of over the counter meds for this mucus in my throat, last night I did the simple warm water salt gargle that some have recommended, and I am already getting some relief from it! Who knew?!! I moved from the ocean after 40 yrs to the High Sierra's near Yosemite 5 yrs ago. I had never before had allergies in my almost 67 yrs of life, and my ophthalmologist said "well you will get them up here!" This past 3 months has been the worst with the post nasal drip and the anxiety-causing mucus stuck in the throat. I also moved to a new apartment recently and they are nice but very old, and I suspect mold which I am addressing with the owners at this time. Anyway, thank you so very much for taking the time to write down all this information for me!! Yes I have done some singing in the past so I have not done hardly any dairy for years but I will admit my diet has not been ideal.I had been busy taking care of others, and now I have had a few years to try to just take care of myself. My Faith in Christ is my foundation, what grounds me and my hope that one day I won't have to deal with any of life's aches, heartaches and pains. Thanks again and if you need more therapy I am here for you. ' )
Sorry .....couldnt help but laugh! I do sympathise with you really ......
