A member asked:
What are good methods to clear mucus in the throat, mucinex is draining the sinus but mucus is bad in the throat especially at night?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It sounds like a postnasal drip which might respond to an over-the-counter fluticasone nasal spray... one inhalation into each nostril every 12 hrs. If the symptoms fail to respond to this, see an ear/nose/throat specialist for an assessment of your sinuses.
