What Causes Persistent Plelgm Congestion In The Back Of Throat?

Hello, I have been suffering this for at least 10 years now. I get constant phlegm in the back of my throat which I try to swallow down (which is also difficult) or cough. It feels like it drips straight from my nostrils down my throat (nasal drip?). This also makes it hard to talk as I need to clear it before I speak. I notice I burp after meals and have bad breath, but I don t get heartburn. Dairy and Spices and fruit definitely make it worse, especially citrus and bananas. What would you suggest this would be?
