A member asked:
Hello, is this diagnose on mri: moderate mucosal thickening of the left sphenoid sinus with entrapped fluid can cause symptoms of swallowing issues and throat clearing?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
An MRI cannot be interpreted without knowing the critical background and seeing the actual images. However, what you are describing sounds likely to be related to sinusitis. If you have postnasal drip, it could result in the frequent need to call your throat. If your symptoms persist or worsen, See your doctor. Good luck.
