A member asked:
What's the best way to reduce mucus production if antihistamines and nasal steroids are not working? thanks!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to be seen: Either allergies or recurrent problems with sinus drainage may still be problems. You need to see your ENT doctor. If he/she cannot resolve the issue, you may need to see an allergist.
