Hi. It seems your symptoms are due to post nasal drip. Use of lorenzes, steam, anti allergic tablets will be helpful in your case. It might takes few weeks, symptoms to improve. Can connect with me through private section if problem persists.

Despite surgery you can have mucus production from the sinuses or lung per se, it could be a symptom of allergy or asthma. U need to step up the nasal spray with a check up from a chest specialist along with a few investigations like xray of sinuses and chest, allergy tests, pulmonary function test. U will require oral anti allergics.
