not sure which forum to post this on but i am hoping someone might have an answer to my question.

When ever i start running after about one mile usually once i have warmed up nicely and getting into my wombling stride i start to suffer with "pnd" or post nasal drip, sorry it sounds disgusting but its basically a runny nose that goes down your throat instead of out of your nose.

i seem to suffer with a lot of colds which doesn't help, but its not nice when running and it strikes has anyone else suffered with this at all or could offer advice on what i could try to counter it?

I get this, as an asthmatic it’s par for the course for me. I use my buff to keep it fresh ( like a hankie), then pop it in the wash when I get home. Simples

thanks ju ju wouldn't mind so much if it came out just runs down the back of my nose from my sinus/nose it goes away but feels horrible to start with :(

Have you tried using a sinus rinse? Might be worth a try as it should clear out your sinuses so there’s not so much left in there to drip when you’re running.
