My mother has ben suffering with a choking sensation in her throat and a very stuffy nose. what can you advise her to do?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Treat sinusitis!: She is draining viscous mucous down her throat. She may need antibiotics. Warm moist air will help (netty pot, hot shower, etc). Avoid antihistimines. If continues, see your doctor. Don't want to develop pneumonia!
