A member asked:

For the past 3 weeks the back of my mouth/throat has been sore. i keep having to clear my throat too. but it does clear. on ibuprofen, hasn't helped?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Clearing throat : May be a sign og allergy, nasal congestion may lead to nasal obstruction and during sleep you may be breathing mostly through your nose which will lead dryness of the mouth and the oropharunx ( the back of the mouth) that in turn makes that area sore
