Is it normal to choke on mucus draining from your nose into your throat everytime you tilt your head back or lay on your back? I am allergic to beeswax and lanolin and beeswax is in almost everything so I'm probably surounded by it. This issue started in the spring when things started blooming and hasn't stopped. I also have a scratchy throat, a stuffy nose, and red itchy eyes. I just want to know if this is just an allergy symtom or if this is actually a concerning issue that I should probably look into or tell my allergist about. I'm not typically one to go to doctors when I have issues because I was raised to just toughen up and ignore it but this is just getting so anoying. I've been using flonase and zyrtec everyday and this is still happening. I don't know what else to do.
Post nasal drainage can cause gagging. This is fairly common during allergy seasons and can last for months. See your allergist for treatment recommendations.
