Should I See A Doctor For Continuous Nasal Discharge Due To Allergies ?
Hello, i m 22 yr/f. I have had post nasal drip for years and sometimes it s so bad that it affects the quality of my life, i sometimes have to clear my throat every few seconds and it gets even worse when i smell pungent odors or perfumes. plus, I ve recently had a clear liquid dripping out of my nose especially when it s cold. sometimes, my nose itches as well but i don t noticeably sneeze or cough. what should i do concerning these symptoms? should i see a doctor? thanks in advance.

Welcome to HCM.
You have this from long time than most probably it could be due to some allergy.
Try to find out the triggering allergen and try to avoid it.
Don't use any deo,perfumes.Always make habit of covering of nose during two wheeler driving, in dusty,foggy,smoky area.
Try to avoid cold drinks,chilled water,deep fry,spicy food.Do warm water gargle.
You have to start Anti allergic medicines and also specific antibiotic under guidance of ENT specialist.
