A member asked:

Can having a stuffy nose and postnasal drip cause dry mouth at all? also, why does it seem as though the postnasal drip is worse at night, even when i'm not laying down?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Post nasal drip can be caused by different conditions like sinusitis ,and hay fever ,and dry mouth can be associated with silent acid reflux . Washing out the nasal passages with saline spray can help if used sparingly. However ,if the underlying problem is not corrected , you may continue to have symptoms , so it is advisable to get an ENT evaluation to diagnose the cause of the post nasal drip.
