  • @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.

  • @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.

  • 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.
