Phlegm/mucous

Any thoughts what causes this symptom? It is driving me crazy.

Could just be run of the mill inflammation. I figure *everything* is inflammation. For mucous, you can use Mullein or Slippery Elm. I prefer loose leaf herb tea for both, but they both come in pill form. Also, drinking lemon water or ACV helps break it up and so does drinking plenty of regular water. Mucous is your body trying to clear itself out. You can have mucous all through your digestive system as well.

THING THAT HELP:
*Mullein
*Slippery Elm
*Lemon Water
*Reg. Water
*Apple Cider Vinegar

FOR ALLERGIES:
*Nettle Leaf Tea

Patty I had it for several months...before diagnosis. It would be in the back of my throat and very thick...swallowing didn't even budge it.

Mine just got better with time and treatment. For me it was infection related.

My Dr. gave me a few pharmas to try - one for acid reflux and another for post nasal drip...neither worked.

This was at the same time I had my sleep apnea test done..because I was having issues with sleep as well.
