Brief Answer:
Possible post nasal drip.
Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thank you for using HCM to post your question.
I read carefully your query and I understand your concern.
What you are describing, medically doesn't indicate nothing to worry about.
what may be happening, is the secretions that nose produces, drop in the back of the throat and irritate the area there. In medical terms is called Post nasal drip.
To help alleviate the discomfort I would recommend to drink plenty of waters, do gargles with salt and maybe use a disinfectant throat spry. If you make sure that your nose is not blocked before sleeping may help as well.
Hope this is helpful.
Let me know if you have other questions, otherwise please kindly close and rate the answer.
