Post Nasal Drip (or PND). Mucus draining down the back of the throat over the back of the tongue where the bad breath bacteria live. They feed off the proteins in mucus and create strong odors. If you still have your tonsils, you may be harboring a higher number of the bacteria in the crevices of your tonsils.
Phenomena are identified from nursing practice. Nursing theories describe these phenomena or provide a framework to deal with these questions or problems. Nursing research is used to describe the phenomena or address the questions and problems. The results of nursing research are then applied to nursing practice.

First of all, research, practice, and theory omit some emphatically important other facets of the cycle, such as reflection, the development and application of insights, and interaction with and feedback from both patients and others. Second, entry into the cycle from any point could be disastrous.
