A member asked:
Can allergies and chronic sinusitis cause excessive post nasal drip and swollen neck glands for 8 weeks? in sched for sinus surgery in 2 months.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Both conditions can cause your problem. Do note that sinus surgery would help if you have obstruction at the sinus openings. Else you should consult an allergist prior to undergoing the surgery.
