Post Nasal Drip Could Be Sign of Stomach Problems

I swear to god that Post Nasal Drip is just horrible to live with. It sucks so bad. I've had it for years. And it gets even worse when I have a cold or if I have the flu. It's disgusting and it makes my throat hurt all the time. I constantly have to hack it up because if I swallow it, it would make me sick. So I have to rinse my sinuses out and use a nasal spray called "patanase" so it can get rid of it. And I have to do this 2 times a day (in the morning and at night) religiously.

@RockaWear2183 ive had this for 4 or more years now, i feel it almost constantly up in the back of my nose, and i have to snort it up and out of there to spit it out. sometimes the mucuous is green, which apparently indicates an infection. but i have completed a course of antibiotics which did nothing.

[RockaWear2183]

@dieselboy87 Oh my gosh, that sounds horrible. :( The mucus usually runs into the back of my throat and (if I don't hack/cough it up), it would sit there and form a very uncomfortable lump in the back of my throat and cause my throat to become irritated and sore. The mucus that I cough up is usually whitish, but sometimes it looks like a pale yellowish color. I'm just at my wits-end with this horrible condition. God, i wish there was a cure for it so NOBODY would have to suffer like this.

Spunk is good for women's post nasal drip. It works well when applied to women liberally on a regular basis.

@angolarose did u get over the candida?

[Rhedz4]

I've had a problem like this for ages now! Mine is a bit different though it's worse at night and as the day goes on.I did go to my doctor and she gave me antibiotics and some spray but i didn't work. It is really annoying and takes me forever to go to sleep.. I'm really scared to go to a differant doctor though because i don't want test and operations being done on me.. I guess i'll just have to live with it..

[LeCutter]

@Rhedz4 No, you won't. Remember, family doctors are general practioners of medicine. You need a referral to a specialist, specifically a ear, nose & throat doctor (otolaryngologist) or a GI (gastro intestinal). You may even need to visit several different ones, but it's worth it for your health and peace of mind. Ask around on medical forums and get other people's advice and suggestions. There's help out there for you somewhere, you just need to do the footwork. Best of luck, keep the faith!

@Rhedz4 I have the same problem I am ok till afternoon and then it increases and increase by the eveing it becomes worse.

Man, she must have awesome health insurance

I have had this problem for about 4 years now. I'm taking 40 mg nexium twice a day and i take allergy shots every week. It is very annoying, effects my voice, and effects my quality of life. I'm allergic to alot of things and doctors think i have acid reflux. I'll prolly never be the same.

[Lengsel7]

I'm not buying the connection.

[SpotsDontDefineMe]

I wonder what it was like to wear that recorder, monitor thing for 24 hours. It looked like it went through his nostril down to her throat. Has anyone ever worn one? Was it uncomfortable or painful?

[ArsenalFan20007]

ive had it for about 6 months now and still have it and its getting very annoying. ive tried absolutely everything, have no idea what to do now

[HajjMay]

Seems there is no sure remedy against this symptom, I have post nasal drip for about more than 3 years now, can't stand it any more!

[LOLMAN22]
