A member asked:
I took zicam nasal spray, because i have a allergy congestion. and now the back of my mouth is burning. and i dont know what to do?

Normally your nasal secretions drain down your throat, so therefore any thing you spray in to your nose will drain into your throat. Secondly Zicam is supposed td shorten colds and is not for nasal allergies, there are more effective meds for that. See a doctor for advise.
