You could store the data into an array, and then print the data by enumerating the array.

$risks = array();

// Load values into array.
while ($row = $result->fetch_assoc()) {
    array_push($row['riskNumDrop']);
}


// Drop down #1
echo '';
foreach ($risks as $risk) {
    echo ''. $risk .'';
}
echo '';

// Drop down #2
echo '';
foreach ($risks as $risk) {
    echo ''. $risk .'';
}
echo '';
