The medical term for when mucus drips down the back of your throat from your nose or sinuses is post nasal drip.
Normal mucus production ranges from 1-2 quarts per day, which is secreted by the nasal and throat glands to moisten the sinus and nasal lining, moisten the air, trap inhaled particles, and help fight infections.
Post nasal drip, which can be clear and watery or thick with a green, yellow, or white color, occurs when too much mucus gathers in the throat or at the back of the nose. It typically causes a tickle or itch in the throat that won’t go away.
Postnasal drip can make it hard to breathe for those who have asthma because of the discomfort it causes, which frequently results in coughing, throat clearing, and watery eyes.
CAUSES
ALLERGIESOne of the most prevalent causes of illness is allergies.
Post nasal drip is a symptom of a septum that is deviated or leans to one side, narrowing one of the nasal passages and making it difficult for mucus to drain properly.

prescriptions for birth control and blood pressure medications, among others.
