Postnasal drip syndrome: A new definition and successful oral gargling treatment
Oral gargling may be a safe and potentially effective treatment for PNDS. It could help dilute and remove mucus from the nasopharynx and oropharynx. We propose a new definition for PNDS: a sensation of PND without cough in the absence of any sinonasal disease, irrespective of endoscopic findings.
