Keeping Hydrated to Relieve Nausea

Can post-nasal drip cause nausea? Yes, common symptoms of post-nasal drip include nausea and vomiting caused by extra mucus in the stomach. Patients may find relief from post-nasal drip induced nausea by drinking herbal teas...

 Drink fluids especially hot fluids

Drink a lot of fluids to thin out mucus. The thinner the mucus, the easier it can pass through your nasal cavities.

Drinking fluids will also moisturize your nasal lining. Hot drinks, like tea or broth, are the best choice. The warmth of these beverages will thin your mucus.

Avoid caffeinated drinks like coffee, caffeinated tea, or soda. Caffeine has a diuretic effect, which may increase your risk of dehydration.
