| What is Post Nasal Drip? |
| |
Post-Nasal Drip (PND) defined simply, is the excess mucus that drips down the back of your throat. This mucus is continually produced by the cell lining of the sinus passages. This can be caused by sinusitis or other inflammatory disorders.
The cilia humidifies, moistens, cleans and traps dust particles or any foreign matter from the air in the nasal membrane, this helps to fight infections.
PND causes swelling, irritation of the sinus lining and can cause bleeding or nasal polyps. |
PND also affects how your breath smells as it is high in protein. Excess mucus settles and irritates the nasal and throat lining causing the following:
- A sore throat
- Bad Breath (Halitosis)
- A cough
The above mentioned conditions may make you assume that you may be coming down with a cold. |

| What are the causes of Post Nasal Drip? |
| |
-
Inhaled Irritants
This causes a swelling of the nasal and sinus linings which is very common where there is a lot of smog, dust and smoke.
- Dairy Products
They cause mucus to thicken which leads to bad drainage.
- Food Allergies
These cause mucus to thicken and cause bad drainage.
- Illnesses
Colds, Flu, Bronchitis, Ear Infections and Tonsillitis are the main causes of PND and the production of excess mucus.

| What are the symptoms of Post-Nasal Drip (PND)? |
| |
- Clearing your throat all the time
This is the most common symptom of PND. The mucus drains from your sinuses and collect at the top of the throat area.
- Constantly swallowing
This is due to the excess mucus caused by PND
- A sore throat that never develops into a cold
The cilia (tiny nasal hairs) stop working properly and this can cause PND. This in turn causes crusty mucus on the nasal and throat lining which causes inflammation and irritation which presents itself as a sore throat. Doctors often prescribe antibiotics for PND thinking that the person is getting a cold and this can make the problem a lot worse because once the antibiotics course has been completed most bacteria will return to normal levels, but usually we find the anaerobic bacteria grow in greater numbers which can cause a bad breath.
- Nasal and sinus congestion
This is when you find it hard to breath through your nose.
- Biter Metallic Taste or Bad/Sour Taste
This taste means that you are tasting a sulphur compound. These compounds produce bacteria that cause bad breath.
- A White/Yellow coating on the tongue
This coating is a mixture of sulphur compounds, mucus and sometimes food particles or beverages. This coating is the reason why your breath smells when you are talking.
- Smelling bad breath when you breathe through your nose
You may notice a smell when breathing or eating from the back of your throat. This is cause by the air escaping from your nasal area.
