Post nasal drip and headache

2020-12-28 18:07:36
Hi Doctor, I have constant post nasal drip (feeling that I have some mucus/phlegm at the back of my throat) and headache mostly in the eye socket (both left and right) and sometimes near the temples. There is neck pain sometimes.(The CS MRI suggests reduced cervical lordosis) Could you please advise on the possible causes? Also, I have an issue with Acid Reflux from past few days
