Yes, often. It never goes away. I've been searching for the reason nowadays. There may be many reasons. It is necessary to eliminate one by one. It would be better if I consult a good doctor. Because there is no phlegm coming from my lungs, but my nose never stops!

Hello Yemrek,

Welcome to the site. Have you seen an Ear, Nose and Throat (ENT) Doctor recently?
he may be able to diagnose your case more clearly and recommend some over the counter medications that can assist you. Katie

I went to the pulmonologist. She said it might be an allergy and gave me nasal spray. This spray makes me worse. It flows into my throat and irritates it. I will go to the ear, nose and throat doctor. A good suggestion. Thank you. I hope the correct diagnosis will be made. Because I have a constantly flowing postnasal drip. I have bronchiectasis. But I don't remember ever producing phlegm. But this postnasal drip is destroying me. It causes damage to the esophagus. I also have gastritis. After I go to the doctor, I will write the result here. Thank you for raising awareness.
