A member asked:
Can nasal allergies cause a lump/something stuck sensation in nasopharynx? ent scope shows pnd but sometimes nothing, yet lump sensation always there!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes it can: Cause this lump sensation due to chronic inflammation, which may or may not be due to allergies. The mainstay here is control of the inflammation, nasal saline washes and nasal steroids would do the trick, in absence of bacterial or fungal infection. If you have access to a qualified allergist, let him/her evaluate your condition, if not, keep the follow up with ENT, good luck
