I have an odd question. I remember reading some threads when I first got on here in May of last year about crusting in the back of the throat and it was inconceivable to me how that would feel at that time. Well now I know, and I'm wondering if any of you have any advice how to dislodge that stuff from the back of your throat. The neti pot and rinse don't work as the water doesn't get back to the throat area. I've tried the 'pre horking' thing (sorry I know this is gross) but it only works about 10% of the time. As I lay in bed last night I was imagining putting some dental floss up my nose and out my mouth and flossing my throat, but I know that's not a reasonable solution.
Any advice will be super appreciated. I am ready to explode with the frustration of feeling that hunk in the back of my throat. It gives me a sore throat when it's there, a hoarse voice, makes it awkward to swallow, and feels like it occasionally blocks the breathing rhythm. Arrrgh!
Muchas Thanks.
