Does Sinus Problems Cause A Bitter Taste In Throat?

Hi.. I am Divya.. From Chennai. I am working in a company for night shift. I m getting bitter taste from my throat. Feel like its too interior from nose region toward throat. But I can feel it.. Its really bitter and cant eat anything. I am not sure whether its because of cold as I dont have cold or any sinus problems. Wish to get a suggestion.. Regards, Divya

thanks for your qurery in HCM,

as per your narration, yes, if there is infection of sinus, the infected secretions may trickle down the throat and cause bitter taste. one thing you can do in home is to take steam inhalation that will help in sinus problem. so if you still face problem consult your nearest ENT specialist and get it managed.

thank you
