What is Post Nasal Drip?
Post-Nasal Drip (PND) defined simply, is the excess mucus that drips down the back of your throat. When mucus flow is interrupted or blocked, our body increases the mucus production to try and move the blockage. This stuck mucus then becomes infected and the excess mucus has no other place to go but down the back of our throat. This then irritates the throat and causes a sore throat.
This mucus is continuously produced by the cell lining of the sinus passages and traps dust particles or any foreign matter from the air in the nasal cavities. The cilia (tiny hair like structures in the nasal cavities) then move the mucus out through the nose or down the back of the throat.
When foreign particles or bacteria get trapped in mucus and are not efficiently moved from these areas a sinus infection develops. Once we have a sinus infection one tends to experience cold and flu like symptoms and may also experience halitosis (bad breath).
Excess mucus settles and irritates the nasal and throat lining causing the following:
The above mentioned conditions may make you feel as though you are coming down with the flu.
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 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.
- Bitter 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 caused by the air escaping from your nasal area.
