Mucas in my throat

[justin_1120]

Its been three days this Mucas is still in me I've tried sorts of things to get it out drinking water and warm water I tried coughing but it's still not out so I was wondering if one of y'all can replie to my post and tell me why it's doing that because when you get mucas out it's supposed to just come out but it's not like I can feel it in my throat but I can't get it out.

You probably need to speak to your doctor so he can prescribe something to help you.

Is three any medicine that can cure that or no

Your GP needs to investigate the cause before he can look at treatment. No one here can give you a diagnosis. There are many things which may help but first you need to know what you are dealing with.

I complained of the same thing to my doctor ,I asked how to get rid of it .

Her answer, TIME . Not very helpful.

I have Bronchiectasis,if you find a way of getting rid ,I would love to know

Mine never goes. Drinking something very cold or bitter tasting helps

I have a flutter device (prescribed by my GP) - which is wonderful to get rid of mucus stuck in my throat - use it every day - wouldn't be without it. Ask your GP to prescribe one x

Justin - I have a glass of fresh pineapple juice every morning which for me tends to loosen the mucus up -Maybe worth a try !!

While you are waiting to follow Mrs Mummy's advice... if it's worse on waking 'cos it built up over night? Try gargling with a cup of hot water with a teaspoon of salt dissolved in it last thing before bed; use up the whole cup at first... and repeat a couple of times in the day until it improves.

Usual advice is avoid Coffee, Dairy, Chocolate, Alcohol etc that cause mucous to thicken...

Having said that, a glass of beer seems to help mine... seriously.

Have you tried 'huffing' ? x
