post nasal drip/fecal breath
post nasal drip/fecal breath
post nasal drip/fecal bb
I snore too so that may indicate something. I have tried nasal drips with h2o2 and saltwater . Just dries everything out worse. I'm wondering if a low processed carb and low salt diet will help. I just saw that tip on Magnolia bark extract and found out certain eclipse gum has Magnolia bark in it. I will try it and see today. I know sugarless gum helps a bit,so I'm hoping MBE (magnolia bark extract) will help more. *fingers crossed*

I have the same thing with the voice coming and going also. I have 2 siblings . 1 also has the hoarseness as I do but no BB like me. The other sibling has BB but no hoarseness . Me and the sibling with BB both have social anxiety disorder ,which causes dry mouth and of course the "lump in the throat" . 1 is a vegetarian and I'm not. That sibling grew up in a different country than me so I doubt the link is environmental . I assume its more genetic and how we process foods . We both have sinus issues from birth .
I have a digestive issue that I'm told stems from taking oral antibiotics for a few years for a skin issue. That was a terrible mistake . I now take a topical for it. I found out the hard way that young DR.s are very prone to push pills because they get a cut of referrals and their still paying off school bills.
Anyway, neither of my siblings have the digestive issue like me but 1 has the fecal bb , and the other has the skin issue but not bb . All 3 of us produce way too much phlegm and are always clear our throats. Only 1 of us lucked out with no bb ... Strange .
sound like you have acid reflux symptoms. the feelin in the throat is it like as if you had something stuck and cant get it out. i have the same feelin. im sure i have acid reflux but i havnt been officialyl diagnosed with it. but im takin Zantac right now and see wat happends.
@red and @deebo can ya smell yas own breath?
Deebo, it is really strange how we have exactly the same symptoms. do you mind telling me what u have done so far to try and find the cause?
thanks so much to both of you for replying

Hello Red. I think from my Moms side ,there is a sinus defect. Her Mother, My Mom , Me and my Siblings all have Post nasal . But my Mom ,Grandma and 1 sibling dont have bb . We are all 'throat clearers' .My grandma is known to carry a handkerchief napkin and spit in it since I can remember .I recall how my sibs and cousins would snicker that Grandma always cleared her throat and spit. We would never dare pilferage her purse,because of the famous evil spit Napkins ! My Mom doesn't carry the napkin but does spit as 1 sibling does without bb.
This has me thinking a few things: Does spitting help curb bb? Sometimes after a cold we get really hard ,dark phlegm that doesn't smell good. Its really hard to get it all out too. I'm thinking that Post nasal drip can dry and cause this hard layer in the back of the throat. I noticed on recordings where I was filming that I was constantly clearing my throat but never spitting just swallowing, one other sibling with bb does the same thing, I suspect it Never goes down ,just sits there (lump) and Putrefies. We both have anxiety so we are prone to dry mouth, which may be unrelated but I think it can't help bb. That sibling brushes and flosses and all that as I do . But I think ,contrary to marketing ploys ,this type of bb is behind where brushes ,tongues scrapers, mouthwashes...etc can possible or safely reach.
Sometimes, after the whole brushing ,scraping,mouthwashing attack I stick my tongue out as far as possible and can just taste and smell a little bit of the bad BB. So this tells me the problem is WAY back there. Sometimes when I just wake up ,I can cough out some of the hard dark phlegm or ever a tonsil stone maybe loosened from snoring . Yea , I know its gross and all , but it makes me wish I could just get in there with a roto rooter and scour the stuff out.
I was driving with a friend and when he took a drink of water and then talked I could smell his fecal bb. I noticed the same for myself ,thinking that drinking water during a conversation would help . It may help after eating a meal to wash the food smell down but it seems to only wash the natural flora away and the hard sticky stuff I suspect is exposed by the water !
I have noticed that Gum helps a little because it prompts saliva . I have used chewing tobacco years ago and never had bb during use, aside from the chew smell . Someone wrote on here about fruit rinds. Growing up around Asian culture I know this may be something to check into. A friend told me how "Crack seed"(Asian dried fruit candy) help wash a cold down the throat. LINK> http://www.crackseedcenter.com
I will try a few type and post the result. There are dozens of types.. ginger, dried lemon peel... . I haven't had any in years but recall how my mouth would explode with saliva all day long while sucking on them . Any good Asian market will have a huge variety. I'll see and tell if something works.

I'd love to know what this lump in the throat is. Could it just be irritated membranes? Could it just be the thick coating right at the back of the tongue which is out of reach? Does anyone no longer have their tonsils but still get the lump feeling?
To Spit or Not to Spit...
I guess a lot depend on whats in the spit or throat. I just read Keeptrying09's candida post. that brought up even more question about a BB cause or cure.
Post Nasal Drip and Bad Breath
If you let me speak there is a way clean the whole sinus system.
It’s best done before you go to bed.
Take a small glass of warm water mix 2 teaspoons of plain salt.
Find something you can use to pour solution into each nostril like a large syringe without the needle.
Now take a hot shower, tilt head back and pour the solution into each nostril till full, now hold your nostrils closed and bend down till you’re looking at your crotch keep holding your nostril closed for 30 seconds now stand up blow your nose very gently. A lot of the solution is now in your upper sinus and will begin cleaning your whole sinus. Do this each night till you’re sure your sinus is clear then do once or twice a week. Please make an effort to do this as I know it clears the sinus and ends Post Nasal Drip. This can stop other problems as it reduces bacteria’s food source. I hope this helps you.
There’s a lot of science to this but I know you’ve had enough of me already so I won’t go into it.
