A member asked:
Can pet hair and cigarette smoke cause sinus drainage?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sinus drainage: Pet hair is a strong allergen and can provoke significant sinus drainage and congestion. Cigarette smoke also can act as an allergen but has a direct irritative effect to the nasal mucosa and can cause drainage as well. Both of these can cause significant drainage.
