Postnasal drip occurs when excess mucus accumulates in the back of the nose and throat, causing discomfort and irritation. Normally, nasal glands produce mucus to keep tissues moist and trap irritants, but in postnasal drip, the mucus becomes thicker or more abundant, often leading to a dripping sensation. Common symptoms include throat clearing, coughing, a scratchy throat, hoarseness, and nasal congestion.

The condition can result from various factors, such as allergies (e.g., pollen, dust), respiratory infections (like colds and sinusitis), and environmental irritants such as dry air and smoke. Gastroesophageal reflux disease (GERD) may also trigger postnasal drip as stomach acid irritates the throat. Hormonal changes and structural abnormalities, such as a deviated septum or nasal polyps, can contribute as well. In some cases, certain foods or medications, such as decongestant overuse, can exacerbate the issue.

Accurate diagnosis typically involves evaluating symptoms, medical history, and a physical exam. Allergy tests, imaging studies, or specialist referrals may be necessary for complex cases. Treatment focuses on addressing the root cause. Antihistamines and nasal sprays help with allergy-related cases, while decongestants, saline rinses, and hydration ease viral symptoms. GERD-related cases benefit from antacids and dietary changes. For structural issues, surgery may be required.

Lifestyle adjustments, like using a humidifier and avoiding irritants, can also provide relief. Saline nasal irrigation is particularly effective in clearing excess mucus. If symptoms persist or worsen, consulting a healthcare provider is recommended to rule out more serious conditions and tailor treatment for lasting relief. With the right approach, most people can effectively manage postnasal drip and improve their quality of life.
