Phlegm in my throat and post nasal drip after Covid

I can relate. I found your question by doing a google search. I’ve had bad post-nasal drip ever since August of 2022 when I first got COVID. I wish it would go away. I wonder if it ever will.

because all this thick phlegm always stays in my throat it really has messed up my sinuses to the point i do get the nasal drip down my throat, the weird thing is it builds in my throat after i eat or drink anything....so to help keep it from building in the sinuses i was prescribed "budesonide" that i use with my navage..it does help keep the nasal drip down. this stuff flushes out my sinus cavities so i can breath.. but i still can't figure out why the phlegm/mucus keeps building...i have alot of other symptoms to that come and go alot but if i could pick just one to go away...it would be the thick yuck in my throat!!!

This is happening to me now. I had COVID about three months ago and now I am plagued with a bouts of post nasal drip, Sneezing, runny, thick phlegm in my throat and symptoms of an allergy. Antihistamines does very little to help. Will this ever end?

Try Oil of Oregano nasal spray. It kills all the gunk and helped me. Burns though!

God Bless You! I have had this thick mucousy salvia in the back of my throat since COVID last August and I had COVID again in October of this year which ramped it up even more. Nothing has taken it away and I have been to several doctors who have no answers. The mouth culture I had done came back as normal mouth bacteria....but this stuff is not normal. I use salt water rinses (salt thins the mucous temporarily), I scrape my tongue daily first thing in the morning using Colgate Peroxdyl to get this stuff off my tongue, I use a waterpik, and I try and drink lots of water. Any antihistamines I have tried helps, but, do not dry up the mucous, BUT do dry out my eyes. I'm praying it will wear itself out. I have gotten choked on this at night. That has not happened lately and i am grateful. Praying you get relief. I care and understand.

May God ease on all of us from this issue.
I had this over two years,
May I ask did you take the covid vaccines, if so, how many.

Like so many here, I’ve had this thick sticky mucus in my throat that won’t go away after recovering from Covid almost a year ago. I’ve been bouncing back and forth between a pulmonologist and an ENT trying to find a way to end this misery. It’s constant and debilitating. Trying yet another nasal spray today along with a prescribed nightly antihistamine. At this point, nothing has helped at all. Doctor said next step will be a nasal CT scan if these meds don’t help. It’s so exhausting coughing up mucus all day long and not finding any relief.

I had a CT scan last December. Multiple ENTs said the CT scan results looked "errily good". So frustrating! One recommended lifestyle changes. The next ENT wanted me to drive three hours away to do food allergy testing. I had already been skin and blood allergy tested. ZERO allergies.

Praying hard everyday.

Yes, I have this. MD says after covid some people may have this symptom for months. Advice is to gargle with a mild solution of salt and warm water, or baking soda and warm water x3 daily. It helps. Am with you!! We will get better!!
