A member asked:

Can seasonal allergies and post-nasal dripping cause a sensation of heartburn?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. John Chiu answered

Highly unlikely: A rare individual may get nausea from profuse post-nasal drips but not heart burns. Reflux is a more likely cause. Talk to your doctor.
