I have this disgusting white stuff in the back of my throat. The only way I can get rid of it is to gargle with warm lemon water. It is so sticky-it hangs in my throat. It won t go up and it won t go down--it just hangs there. How can I get rid of it. The lemon water lets me spit it up in the sink, but that is the only way and then it is back in an hour or so. I have had this for almost a year. I have tried allergy sprays and decongestants. I have had my tonsils out-recently-nothing is helping. They put my on clindamycin-150 mg--I can never blow anything out of my nose. I don t know what to do. I have never had allergies before--I had this problem after having the flu last December.
