Hi,
Thanks for writing to us,

Snorting pills and substances leaves the pharynx or the throat vulnerable to infections due to exposure to contaminants that are usually present with these substances. It also causes local inflammation leading to frequent upper respiratory infections which you may experience in the form of congestion. Both of the above may give rise to symptoms that you are describing. A physical examination would reveal the cause of your problem.

It is advisable to visit your doctor for examination and appropriate treatment.

Hope your query is answered.
