Suggest Treatment For Stuffy Nose And Cough

For a couple months after I eat any meal I get a stuffy nose and have to cough to clear conjection from my throat. This happens whether I am the cold and rainy NW or in the desert climate for winter, so It doesnt seem to be envirnmental. I had trouble with a high bloos pressure med several years again with a cronic cough but it went away upon changing meds. This is immediately after eating any and all meals.
