is the nose connected to the throat?

Yes, unfortunately,,,yuck!  The sinuses connect to the ears and to the oral pharynx(back of the throat, upper airway) That's why you often get a "tickle" in the back of your throat. It's the sinuses draining.

The epiglottis is a thin, lid-like flap of cartilage tissue covered with a mucous membrane, attached to the root of the tongue, that guards the entrance of the glottis, the opening between the vocal cords. It is normally pointed upward, but when swallowing, solids or liquids stimulate sensors which folds down the epiglottis, and prevents food that should go into the esophagus and stomach from passing into the trachea (windpipe). The epiglottis is one of three large cartilaginous structures that make up the larynx (voice box).\n\nbasically it stops food from going down your throat the wrong way and choking you by getting into your lungs it sends food to the stomach

Have you tried nasal strips?

Okay here is an answer from your friendly respiratory therapist. when you breathe you do so through your nose, at least you should, humans are nose breathers.  We do this because right beyond your nose is a body part called the concha which in simple terms is like a palm tree full of blood vessels and tissue, etc to naturally warm up, filter and hydrate the air you breathe in so when it gets to the lungs its is as warm, clean and damp as possible.  Now when you blow your nose you blast that nasal concha with hurricane force winds and the crap on it comes off, sometimes you break a blood vessel on the concha which s generally no big deal, unless you have a bleeding disorder.  Anyway this is all up in you sinuses and when you blow you nose hence the warm pink snot.  I hope that this anatomy and physiology lesson was helpful, if not email me. I'll explain further

a post nasal drip means there is mucous and phlegm running down the back of your pharnyx, into the back of the throat, which irritates it, thus causing the cough.

Sinus refers to the nose and the tubes leading to your nose, they go through your head, and to your nose and also lead to the back of your throat.  Sinusitis is an infection or inflammation of the sinuses.  Decongestants and antihistamines can help, but if you have a sinus infection you'll most likely need antibiotics.

pharynx is the general term:\n            nasopharynx to the nose\n            oropharynx to the mouth\n            laryngeopharyx to the larynx-voicebox\n\nbut the eustacean tubes are also in this area. They are another passageway off the pharynx

I am not sure exactly what you mean when you say “weakness”, but here is one way in Chinese medicine for the thinking about the nose.\n\nIn Chinese medical theory, the nose is related to the Lung.  The Lung is considered to be the canopy for the other organs that lie beneath it in the torso.  Also, it is the closest organ to the outer part of the body (compared to, say, the heart, which is more internal).  In this framework, the Lung can be seen as a vulnerable organ, and can be the first to be attacked in the disease process.  So a weakness of the nose could be a sign of a weakness of the Lung.\n\nChinese medicine generally addresses the pattern of symptoms, not just one thing like the nose.  If you are have trouble with your nose, please see a health care practitioner. :)

I cant give you details about the sinus problem but what I can say with certainty is that a sinus problem can cause what is called a post nasal drip.  This means that excretions from the sinuses drip down the back of the throat causing a tickle and a cough.

Singing through your nose does not mean it will sound like your nose is plugged.  When people sing through their nose, they are simply trying to sound like someone (or something) they are not.  Instead of singing the sound that comes naturally out of their vocal chords, they are trying to create a sound by closing up the chords and pushing the sound out through their nose.  If you just sing naturally and normally, then you will not be singing out of your nose.

Are you having sinus/allergy symptoms? The drip down the back of your throat can make it hurt.

Yes. Pulmonary ventilation starts with the external nares (nasal cavity) -> then to pharynx -> larynx -> trachea -> bronchi -> bronchial tree > Lungs
