I recently spent time with a consultant for EN T because of excessive mucus i have C O P D got all the medication over the years but not what he suggested which i thought was a joke a Neti pot with a salt wash added to boiled water after cooling it dose help has any one used this i found by using Carbocisteine capsules with plenty of water 2 Lit a day it dose loosen the mucus to cough up is better that he gave me

What meds did the consultant suggest to you for the problem ? I have heard of a Neto pot but I’ll have to look it up to remind myself lol. I’m using NAC to help with mucus . 🍀

I use a sinus rinse regularly, these only clear sinuses, but a useful I also use Sterimar and have nose drops. I don’t use all at the same time, more on the winter. I have copd and chronic bronchitis.

I use Sterimar rather than a netipot, it is much easier. It helps to keep the sinus's clear and can stop infections starting in your nose. I have just had a sinus op which i am pleased to say has stopped the over production of mucus and is draining as it should do for the first time in 3 years, which in turn has stopped me coughing all the time x

Google saline nasal wash. A Neti pot is just brilliant for me; great relief from my post nasal drip without steroid nasal spray medications that either didn't work or made it worse.
