Salam,
alot of times mucus can be produced due to many reasons.
Post Nasal Drip:Post nasal drip occurs when an excessive amount of mucus accumulation in the nose and throat creates phlegm and causes coughing. ..
nondrowsy antihistamines like (Claritin) can work to get rid of postnasal drip. However, these are more effective after you take them for several days. Saline nasal sprays can help moisten your nasal passages and reduce symptoms of postnasal drip.
if its related with cold and flu virus it may take sometime to leave the body.
however if it remains an issue you may need to see an ENT.
for more advice please call on the call centre number for helo.
thanks

Please give full details of your issue.... Any associated symptoms like fever or nasal obstruction.... if there is it complete or partial? For how much time you're facing it? Is it related to any specific season?

Most likely you've got acute rhinosinusitis..... just start with steaming and Salinase drops. Do consult some ENT surgeon as soon as possible to rule out any obstruction or do drainage of sinuses if completely blocked.
Mucos in throat seems to be the one dribbling from back of your nose(postnasal drip) .Flue (if it is runny nose ,nasal obstruction and congestion) could be due to allergies.If other abnormalities are ruled out and only allergy is suspected than you can be kept for long term nasal sprays and anti allergies.Dr Talha FCPS(Aga Khan University ) DOHNS (Ireland)
