Post nasal drip: You describe symptoms of post nasal drip that can be caused by several things including nasal allergies and acid reflux. If you have nasal symptoms, start by using a saline nasal spray or seek the help of an allergist. If you do not have nasal symptoms, you may need to see your doctor and determine if you have acid reflux.
