A member asked:
Post nasal drip/mild swelling on the philtrum and cheek around the nose. no cold symptoms. doc perscribed nasal spray. no solution. any ideas?

Nasal spray: It is possible you were prescribed a steroid nasal spray. The effect of such sprays is not immediate. Rather it takes a few weeks for changes like reduced intranasally swelling and decreased mucous production to be noticed.
