What does it mean when you have fluid building up in the back of your throat but you cant cough it up?
The liquid that is building up at the back of the throat is actually mucus (sometime referred to as phlegm). This symptom is known as post nasal drip. Post Nasal Drip results due to your body being unable to get rid of mucus regularly, usually due to nasal or sinus congestion. Thus the mucus is forced down the back of the throat. When the mucus become trapped in the sinuses/nose it gets thicker, and it is this thicker tenacious mucus that is getting stuck on the back of your throat. You can try mucinex or sinuswars2 to treat this problem. Post Nasal Drip foten also causes throat irritation, throat infection and chronic coughs.

Nose and throat glands continually produce one to two quarts of mucus a day. This moistens and cleans the nasal membranes, humidifies air, traps and clears inhaled foreign matter, and fights infection.

Post-nasal drip can be caused by excessive or thick secretions by throat muscle or by swallowing disorders.

What over the counter medicine is best for sore throat?
In my experience, the best over the counter medicine for sore throat pain is ibuprofen (advil, motrin) or acetaminophen (tylenol) taken as directed on the bottle. Sore throat pain is like any other pain you may experience, and will respond to pain medication. In addition, gargling with warm salt water several times a day (3-4) provides relief and will help you heal faster. If your sore throat is due to Allergies or post nasal drip, you might also try benadryl (diphenhydramine) to help dry that up. Sore throat drops/candies and sprays are numbing agents. They tend to numb the tongue rather than the back of the throat. If you are set on one of these products, the spray will probably work better if you can get the spray back to the throat.
Why do I taste food?
You taste food because your body has taste buds in the back of the throat that allow you to taste the flavors of the food. They are very sensitive and may react to overly spicy, sweet, or salty foods.
