Hi Dear,

Welcome to HCM.

Understanding your concern. As per your query you have symptoms of mucus in throat and post nasal drip with COPD which is due to upper respiratory tract infection as post nasal drip is clear indication of infection. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to take anti-inflammatory medications such as Tylenol or Motrin may help reduce any infection. Gargle warm saline rinses as well as do betadine gargles. You should avoid cold carbonated beverages. You should take steam inhalation along with vaporizers. Visit ENT specialist once and get some routine blood investigation done. Go for proper examination and then start treatment accordingly. Avoid extreme spicy and salty food. Take diet rich in multivitamins. Take combination of antihistamine and oral antibiotic such as Bactoclav for 3 days.

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.

Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
