hi, i think i might have this and have an incling it is helping to cause the bad breath in the back of my throat and tongue.

the reason is, 1 side of my nostrils is always blocked and the other works fine, (this alternates with the nostrils)
in the back of my mouth/ throat i can feel mucus coming down and i swollow it.

is this usual of PND and will nostril irragation with saline/bi card solution help clean out the mucus?

thanks

Yep, lots of bb sufferers have that, including me. Tho, the majority of ppl with a stuffed nose don't have bb..

Personally, i think PND isn't the cause of bb, it's just another symptom that comes with having bb. Try taking anti-allergy meds, it will stop the PND and your tongue will become more pink but your bb will stay the same or worsen, that leads me to believe that PND isn't the root cause, something else is.
