What Causes Post Nasal Drainage?

I seem to always have a lot of post-nasal drainage as well as always have crusty nasal passages that sometimes bleed. I have tried using a saline solution spray into my nostrils which helps for a very short amount of time and then the scabs seem to come right back. What could be the possible causes of this. Also, I am always having to clear my throat. Age 58, height 5' 5'', 185 lbs.
