How much time should it take to get of post nasal drip?

Dr. Al Hegab answered

Specializes in Allergy and Immunology

Depends on the cause: if allergic rhinitis or chronic rhinitis, needs to be controlled once diagnosed right, takes few days after starting your medications, same if it was sinusitis either acute or chronic, the key issue here is right diagnosis, good luck
