Help! Weird lower sinus cavity / back of throat problem?

I have the weirdest sinus problem. Actually I'm not sure if it's my sinuses. It is very low, it's located between the lower sinus cavity and the back of the throat...

If you imagine the back of your throat, and then the edge of your upper palette, then go up an inch or so, it's as if it's clogged. It worsens at night. Although I can breathe through my nose OK, I get an uneasy feeling air is being constricted and it causes difficulty swallowing which feels really unsettling.

I'm not sure what's up there but I have had my tonsils and adenoids out a long time ago. I am trying to look up pictures on the internet so I can locate where the clog is but can't locate a good picture of what is between the lower sinus and the upper throat.

Can anyone help??

Have you tried using a saline spray and sort of " washing" the area? Throughly letting it wash down the back of your nose and down your throat? I've had it happen to me, ( at least this sounds like it) and it only lasted a few days, so you must be uncomfortable !

I found a diagnostic site, and I hope it works for you.... or at least that they can give you some answers. There are a lot of questions, but if you have an hour, it might be worthwhile, to give you some idea of what is happening with your sinuses and throat.
