Post nasal drip

This is the back of the nose, seen from a view through the mouth and up behind the soft palate, using a high definition flexible digital endoscope. The greyish, swollen uneven structure towards the top is the very back of the inferior turbinate. It is causing post nasal drop, bad taste and the need to snort / clear the back of the nose. If it doesn't respond to salt water douches and steroid sprays, a posterior laser turbinoplasty operation will shrink it down.
