29837 tn?1414534648 I've had sinus problems for years. Post nasal drip for one. I'm a professional singer and it's been tormenting me for years. Recently I went to an eye, ear, nose specialist who prescribed Nasonex. Anyone have any success with it? I say that because I tried it now for two days with no effect. Do I need to try it longer? Anyone?

Avatar f tn I got covid 5 weeks ago and recovered within 8 days but the post nasal drip is still lingering with minor one sided stuffy nose on and off. The post nasal drip seems like it drips less at times and more other times so it is also on and off but doesn't seem to go away. When there is a lot I would cough and sometimes it would coat my throat or get stuck there and I have to clear my throat constantly or try to hack it up by coughing. It is annoying and miserable.
Avatar f tn I have been suffering for four weeks now with post nasal congestion and post nasal drip. I first went to the doctors and was diagnosed with sinus infection and was given antibiotics for 5 days. It got better but gave me a UTI and stomach cramps then when antibiotics were done the congestion and drip was back with the UTI. I was then given 10 days of antibiotics for sinus infection and another antibiotic for UTI. The UTI got better but the congestion stayed.
Avatar f tn I definitely have post nasal drip and currently take nasonex. A ct scan oy sinuses revealed that I have a devisted septum. I sometimes wake up with a tight feeling in my chest. Could this be asthma maybe? Why would I get fluid in my right ear? Thanks for your attention to this matter.
Avatar f tn I went to my doctor when experiencing thick post nasal drip, dizziness, puffy eye and she diagnosed me with a sinus infection and put me on augmenten for 10 days. The mucus is now clear but the thick clear sticky post nasal drip is still chronic. I'm constantly snorting and spitting up mucus. I went to the ENT and he prescribed Nasonex and Mucinex. But it did not help. He then did a scope and found an abudnance of thick sticky mucus and he suctioned some of it out.
Avatar m tn I have had post nasal drip and severe sinus problems for many years now. I had an operation to remove a cyst and some polyp's about 5 years ago. This never stopped the post nasal drip, and i have since had ct scans done and it reveals that i once again have polyps. I seem to be getting different story's from every specialist i see, with the most recent one saying that the polyps wouldn't be causing you trouble and there is nothing he can do.
Avatar f tn Thanks for the response. I'll start looking for a good allergist/asthma doctor. I'm starting to get the post nasal drip (again) and I just can't keep going thru this every 6 weeks.
Avatar f tn You also might be able to find a cough suppressant OTC that is aimed directly at coughing due to post nasal drip. The allergies are so bad this year, I would bet that is what is causing your problems. I was told that doctors have seen more cases of seasonal allergies and sinus infections this year alone than they have in the last 5 years. that should tell you something.
Avatar f tn Yes, the coughing could be part of allergic rhinitis. It could also be due to post nasal drip, possible GERD, infection, medication side effect and even from environmental irritants such as air pollutants. If it persists, have this checked by your doctor for proper evaluation. Antihistamine, decongestants and prescription medications may help provide relief. Take care and do keep us posted.
Avatar f tn My daughter takes singulair every night and still has asthma and allergies flare ups. Veramyst nasal spray works best for me and nasonex is ok. I don't know which antihistamine medicine works best, I've tried them all too and they all have a side effect,.
Avatar m tn This is because the openings of the maxillary sinuses are high up in the nose. On lying down the maxillary sinuses drain as a post nasal drip and the headache subsides. Most headaches worsen on walking, physical activity and exertion. 2. The sinuses have a vast surface area and hence with the slightest infection and inflammation the toxins are absorbed easily into the blood stream and cause the nausea, dizziness, weakness and fatigue. The post nasal drip can also causes acidity and reflux. 3.
Avatar f tn What antihistamines have you used? It wasn't an antihistamine with a decongestant or Benadryl was it? Singulair can be used for Allergic Rhinitis like you have, however, this is usually prescribed for someone with Asthma issues secondary to Allergic Rhinitis. What nasal steroid are you using? Most of them can be used long term.
Avatar f tn One therapy that sometimes works for this condition is a nasal inhaled steroid which temporarily decreases the inflammation, but does not cure anything. You might discuss this safe option with his doctor.
Avatar n tn If you have been under a tremendous amount of stress and you are suffering these symptoms, I would ask your doctor for a mono test. Mono often starts with heavy post nasal drip and severe sore throat, swollen glands, etc. Mono will not respond to antibiotics because it is a virus and the best thing you can do is REST. I had it last year and again the end of October (I think because I was under a tremendous amount of stress at work and my immune system was weak).
Avatar m tn (have you had a ct/cat scan?) My cause of this is post nasal drip( thick junk thats always in the throat)15 to 20 doctors? wow. if you have post nasal drip and you tried sprays, nasal drops, and at least 2 courses of antibiotics, the ENT MIGHT send you to endoscopic sinus surgery. im ganna have that pretty soon. so dont be to down of yourself, you dont have bad breath. good luck.
Avatar m tn Hello, What you seem to be having is chronic post nasal drip. Post-nasal drip is mucus accumulation in the back of the nose and throat leading to, or giving the sensation of, mucus dripping downward from the back of the nose. Post-nasal drip can be caused by excessive or thick secretions, or impairment in the normal clearance of mucus from the nose and throat.
Avatar m tn 2 red radish crushed + 1or 2 teaspoon honey + half yellow lemon. Stir up and eat. Make sure with full stomach because the acid from redish and lemon might hurt your stomach. Try 2-3x per week. Do not eat or drink dairy before or after take this at least 1hour.This is Mexican home remedies help nasal allergy and itching. For children older then 2 years, you can cut it in 1/3 the amount and about 2 times per week. I will try this for my son.
Avatar m tn There's a lot of things that could be causing post-nasal drip, so it's hard to give decent advice without examination by doctor. If it's an allergy, the most effective meds, according to research, is pseudofed and singulair. Both work differently, so you could try each, seperately. Your phlegm would be clear or light green probably It could be a sinus infection if your phlegm is yellow or darker green.
Avatar f tn He is on Nasonex and Zyrtec to control post nasal drip and use Atravent as needed to help minimize cough. He has just come off 7 days of 30mg of Prednisone to treat severe coughing episode. I was told there isn't any other medication or treatment for him. Night time coughing is very bad for him. Even after coming off the prednisone and the breathing treatments don't help much. Is there nothing else that can be done.

Avatar m tn I had post nasal drip for almost 3 weeks. My nose was not runny nor did I feel stuffed up, I now have a mild sore throat no more drip, but phlem and it's clear also the bumps on the back of my tongue appear to be raised on both sides but one side a little more than the other. Does this sound like a sinus infection?
Avatar m tn And both my Sister-in-law and niece both suffer from allergies and post nasal drip. They are sneezing all the time. I guess I could have caught it from one of them. Now the problem is getting rid of it.
Avatar f tn I too suffer with awful post nasal drip and also gerd. I take zyrtec and Rhinocort Aqua, it is nasal spray and it does help. I have tried other nasal sprays but this one seems to work the best.
