Could nasal dripping down throat cause upset stomach?

NO: "Post Nasal Drip" does not cause any stomach condition! Just doesn't amount to much!! Hope this helps! Dr Z

No: You actually might have gastric reflux causing you to think you have "post nasal drip". One trick is to elevate the head of your bed on cinder blocks.
