Is there any way to stop Post-Nasal Drip?

Question

Can somebody please help me? I have really bad post-nasal drip, more like post-nasal waterfall... Since it's back to school and all, I don't want to get up in the middle of a lecture to spit that mucus out, or better yet swallow it, then having trouble swallowing it all the way. It is very annoying, I have to stop in the middle of a sentence and spit it out, everybody at school thinks it's "gross" but what can I do about it? I also have to spit/swallow it before I take every bite! Is there any way that can relieve it? Thank you for reading this and thank you for all of your answers.

Answers are highly appreciated!

Answer 1

I have the same problem and it drives me insane.  Try a decongestant like Mucinex-D and also a Saline Nasal Spray.  This will help to make things run a bit more smoothly so it doesn't clog up and leave the phlegm on the back of your throat.

Answer 2

you need combination decongestan and safe or minimal side effect...consult your doctor. for pain relief , swollen and fever..take acetaminopen, if you have the symptoms more than 3 days....maybe you need anti biotic.  

Answer 3

I mix salt and water and put it in a glass bottle with an eye dropper. I Use the saline in my nose twice daily and it really helps to clear my nose. Benedryl caps help too.
