Chronic throat clearing

2020-03-28 14:17:23
Chronic throat clearing from 2 and half months with no cold or fever. I don't know whether it is PNS or LPR. Had CT scan of chest and Neck and the report came with the mild mucosal thickening involving bilateral maxillary sinus. X rays of nose tell the same.

Do you complain of hyperacidity? More likely to be post nasal drip but needs to be confirmed by evaluating the status of nasal cavity on CT scans.
Next Steps
Please send photos of the CT scan via chat for confirmation of diagnosis and advice on treatment
