Why do i have persistent throat clearing and snorting? Steroids & antihistamines do not help. No acid reflux?

I have had persistent throat clearing and snorting in the attempt to clear irritation (real or imaginary) in the throat and upper airways. Tests have ruled out stomach acid reflux. CT scan and video inspection of the ENT areas reveal no abnormality.

I have taken several antihistamines and steroid sto no avail. iam a 56year old male.

Go to a Ear, Nose and Throat doctor.

Have you tried Guafenisen (Robitussin or Musinex)? It sounds like sinus drainage.

Perhaps its Post Nasal Drip. Look that up online and see if it sounds similar
