A member asked:
I keep getting this constant phlegm stuck in my throat and i feel like i keep needing to swallow all the time, what could be the cause of it?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Post nasal drip: It probably is due to post nasal drip due to usually sinus problems. Take a non sedating antihistamine like Loratadine for few days. If problem persists see a doctor so your throat can be inspected.
