Persistent Post Nasal Drip Posted: 07-29-06 03:03am
Here's my question: i've had a long
history since my childhood (am now f/22)
of having post nasal drip. My doctors
always commented on it and most recently a
doctor told me that I had rhinitis and
post nasal drip. So, I have a history of
frequent post nasal drip. At this point
it seems to be pretty persistant every day
and I just am not having allergy problems.
I want to know if there's any other
explanation for the post nasal drip and
should I ask my doctor about this. I've
had some stomach problems also and could
that be related for this persistant drip.
My nose isn't runny at all and i'm just
not having allergy problems but I can feel
it in my throat and look at it in the
mirror. I try to swallow it but it feels
like it's stuck and no matter how much I
swallow it's still there.
For example: I just looked in my throat
and there's definatley a thick white
secretion in the back of my throat but I
have no allergies, no runny nose, and it
won't clear. This has been going on for a
really really long time.
