Phlegm in my throat and post nasal drip after Covid

Yeah the post nasal drip is awful. I'm 13 months in, it never seems to stop. Visiting another ENT later this month, first one simply said vasomotor rhinitis. But since its only coming from my left nostril and started after Covid I won't believe its rhinitis. Maybe it's inflammation in general or my body thinks it's fighting something that isn't there anymore. I'll update here after my visit. Now trying ipratropium bromide nasal spray, it's known to stop/dry out mucus. And I totally feel you, it wears me out as well. Daily life is nothing like before with this

Hey, just wondering how can you tell the PND is only coming from the left nostril? I thought nostrils only played a part in runny noses not PND

Reading through this thread, it looks like no doctor has figured out why this is happening. There are some ways to treat the symptom, but none work well, and none point to the source of the problem. I agree with your assessment that it seems my body thinks it is fighting something that isn't there anymore. Hoping this gets solved sooner rather than later.
