You could use OTC meds that contain Guaifenesin which is in the expectorant family that could help break down the mucus and help you expel it. Also, I have heard that pure pepperment in water can also open you up to help too but I have never tried it. You can also ask your doctor to prescribe Sitrex PD Liquid. This contains Phenylephrine HCI 7.5 mg and Guaifenesin 75 mg in a sugar free alcohol fre dye free liquid dose. Usually each 5 ml dose (1 teaspoon) every 4 hours is enough to break down the mucus and help restore airways. If you have a cough that persists beyond 7 days that you do not see any noticable change in treatment, you should seek medical attention as this could be a more severe respritory issue that needs other treatment. I hope this helped.

You can try mucinex or sinuswars2 to treat this problem. Post Nasal Drip foten also causes throat irritation, throat infection and chronic coughs.
Yes, snot is a part of the body's excretory system. It is produced by the nasal mucosa and contains debris such as dust, bacteria, and mucus that the body wants to rid itself of.
As we breathe, germs and particles get into our nose and nasal passages. The purpose of snot is to trap these germs and particles to prevent them from entering our lungs. Blowing your nose allows you to get rid of these negative things to both help avoid getting sick as well as getting rid of a cold or illness. Mucus is also essential in smelling. As we breath through our noses, scent particles travel into the nose and then are dissolved in the mucus so that the nerve receptors in the sinus passage can transmit the signals to the brain.
