Post nasal drip: help!

TenenielTeneniel member

I normally have post nasal drip, but the pregnancy has made it much worse.  I was bearing with it okay until I got sick, and now the drip coupled with my asthma is making me cough waaaaaaay too much (my ribs are KILLING me!).

I use a netti pot twice a day and it helps for a while...but even then I'm still getting it a little bit.

What other tricks can I use?  What happens if I put two salt packets in the netti pot instead of one?  Will it dry me out more or is it not something I should even attempt?

Sorry if this is a lame question, but I'm going crazy over here!

    I frequently double up on the salt packets with my Neti pot, especially if I am trying to ward somthing off.  Like as soon as I feel something coming on, I will neti with 2 packetsd 3x a day for 2 days and I can usually stop it dead in its tracks.  You will definately dry up more.  But it should stop the post nasal drip.  Feel better.
