Brief Answer:
Not a sign of HIV infection
Detailed Answer:
Hi Sir,
I have gone through your query; it suggests that you may not be suffering from the HIV.
I personally suggest to you to take antibiotic after culture and antibiotic sensitivity of post nasal drip.
But to rule out HIV and other diseases you may go for
1. X Ray PNS
2. Blood test for HIV I and II
Thanks
