A member asked:

My throat is feeling like i'm getting strangled i have sinus problems what could be doing this?

Post nasal drip: If you don't have any fever, sore throat, but have a "choking" feeling with your sinus problem, it must be from the mucus that drains to the back of the throat. Check with your doctor so he can prescribe something to clear your sinuses.
