Hello Stephanie, good to hear from you. My husband Pete gets clear frothy mucus in the evening and he says it’s from the lungs. He feels fine and isn’t troubled by it.
Speak to your medical expert if you’re worried. Take care xxx. X
It’s often a sign of pulmonary edema, I would get this checked out
I get this. My ild nurses said white frothy tends to come from sinuses, which surprised me but it does fit with where it feels it comes from. It drips into my lungs and then I have trouble clearing it.
Best wishes jo
Please go to your GP, this could mean fluid on your lung caused by your heart (don't panic it may not be) so just get it checked out. Don't assume anything is 'just another symptom of COPD'.
