➡️ 1. Laryngopharyngeal Reflux
This occurs when stomach acid moves upwards instead of downwards and ends up accumulating in your throat. The contents could be either acidic or nonacidic. As the fluid sits back there, it causes that nagging sensation that makes you want to constantly clear your throat.
➡️ 2. Post-Nasal Drainage
This is, as the name suggests, literally where drainage from the nose travels down and accumulates in the back of the throat. The cause of this could stem either from allergies or from your sinuses and the treatment really depends on which one it is.
➡️ 3. Food Allergies
That's correct, it is very possible for that nagging feeling to stem from a food that your body is allergic to. Common culprits include dairy products, wheat, gluten, and even eggs in some cases.
➡️ 4. Infection
That feeling of needing to constantly clear your throat is also a side effect that comes from a virus or infection such as the common cold. Again, it causes contents to build up in the throat which results in that uncomfortable feeling.
➡️ 5. Respiratory Conditions
Respiratory diseases and conditions such as asthma, COPD, chronic bronchitis, pneumonia, and cystic fibrosis can cause the feeling of constant mucus in your throat as well.
So now that we've covered some of the most common causes, let's talk about some of the techniques that you can use to make it go away.
➡️ 1. Take the Right Medications
The most effective way to get rid of mucus and phlegm is to take the medications that are prescribed directly by your doctor. This is especially true for those who have underlying respiratory conditions.
➡️ 2. Drink Plenty of Fluids
You probably grew up hearing your parents tell you to drink plenty of water every time you were sick or had a cold. It may sound cliche, but they were 100% correct because it actually does help improve the functionality of pretty much all the major systems of the body.
➡️ 3. Gargle Warm Salt Water
It's a home remedy that feels nice and can help get rid of mucus in the back of your throat.
➡️ 4. Take a Hot Bath or Shower
In this case, the main benefit of taking a hot bath or shower is to inhale the steam that is produced by the warm water. Steam acts as a natural way to help break up and get rid of mucus and phlegm.
➡️ 5. Keep Your Allergies Under Control
Not only can seasonal allergies cause a runny nose, itchy throat, and watery eyes, they can also cause excessive amounts of mucus and phlegm to build up as well.
➡️ 6. Avoid Irritants
Things like pollution, chemicals, and even certain fragrances can trigger the body to produce excessive amounts of mucus. So if you notice that any of these are making your symptoms worse, just try to avoid it if possible.
➡️ 7. Eat Foods That Are Good for the Respiratory System
Anecdotal studies have shown that certain foods and drinks can be effective in getting rid of mucus and phlegm. Spices such as chili and cayenne pepper contain substances that help clear up the sinuses.

Very helpful video.
Why does your voice keep cutting out?????
The]
Stay inside away from ragweed
T.y
When you’re sick and watching videos like this, it feels like an hour long movie. 😫
True story but then most things do. Walking from your bed or chair to the bathroom or any other part of the house can feel like a marathon.
True i am ill all the time
SO TRUE WHY THE FCUK I CARE ABOUT CAUSES !! JUST TELL ME HOW TO GET RID OF IT !!!!!
True
Speed the video
Did anyone clear their throat while listening to this ?
Yes lmao
@@Angel-hp6hf explain which steps you did
No
can anyone help me like i have something in my throat like the green thing but i never have to cough literally almost never i dont know what to do
I did
1. Consult a doctor
2. Keep drinking water (hot)
3. Gargle with salt water
4. Take steam
5. Control your allergies
6. Avoid irritants
7. No smoking/alcohol
8. Eat foods like chili and pepper
Edit: dude this is not recommended by me. I just made a summary of the video above. If you guys don't want to consult a doctor please don't. It's your wish.
Doctors don't cure anything. They make things worse. Never ask a "doctor" ! They have no education in medical school on root cause from diets.
@@scott8940 I go to a doctor and they do nothing so annoying
What if u only get the phlegm when u smoke weed ? Cuz that happens to me . I could breathe fine and all but I caught covid like 2 months ago and when I was finally negative I finally smoked weed since like a while . So then the weed cough kicked in and the only difference was that phlegm came out . And Idk what that means , it could just be me recovering from it still but if so , do u recommend me stopping still ?
@@squigga6675 I suggest to stop and see what happenes
@@lightyagamiswifeyagami7002 alright I’ll see , it won’t be easy but if it doesn’t stop should I see a doctor?
Wow! I thought I was the only person suffering from this ailment. I always have mucus built up in my throat and am always trying to cough it up. Its very annoying. Glad to know I am not alone.
How many times you’re suffering from this?
This a constant issue I have had for well over 40 years. I thought it was a smaller and less version of Cystic Fibrosis as many of my cousins and their children have suffered from. Irish heritage.
@@tamimahmed4686 is the mucus gone now?😭 I’m 15 and had this for 2 months and I’m worrrying like crazy.
@@etdmike after covid I'm suffering this
@@mariaeberle2886 Would you rather treat the symptom or treat what is causing the symptom to occur in the first place?
Chew on a 1/2 inch piece of ginger, then swallow. It has helped me for years.
Does it actually work cause i don’t know if I’m willing to eat ginger because I hate the taste
@@hiii1023 Yeah and you can mix it with water if you want
@@kik2940 thanks!
Mines worse at night. Feel like im swallowing it constantly but it dosent budge. Need to speak to the doctor I think 😭
me right now
Have you tried a humudifier and add sum salt inSide(tspn)..
Reduce bread and potatoes...those are two of the many foods that increase mucus production. Add peppers to meals to help move it out.
Same here. I need sinus surgery, but I certainly will not be doing that in the age of corona. Saline spray and gel along with gargling warm salt water with ACV helps. Also sipping just plain warm water (just water -- add nothing) helps set it, and me, free.
Doctors don't have a clue. I was told years ago. When it comes to your health.
You will get better answers from a secretary than a doctor !! TRUE !!
Why do I find this guys voice and accent so calming? Makes me a little homesick too. Great job with this site.
I’m going through something like this and I pray it’ goes away for u guys too amen
Thank you very much for your information. It is very helpful. Very nice presentation clear, informative and easy to understand.
I love it !! You are so clear and easy to understand!!
I love how all of these medical mysteries have something to do with food! Thank you so much for sharing these with us
once again I love the channel and I thank God for this channel cuz it is extremely helpful can I tell all my friends to watch it so they can get the input that they need for their help and we truly appreciate you thank you so much God bless you
Thank you for sharing.
I've got covid right now, and the build up of mucus and phlegm in my throat led to coughing, which led to choking because my airways got blocked by that build up, and then led to throwing up. Watching this helped me understand, thanks.
I've got same symptoms but mine isn't covid it's just a flu do u have a sore throat too n when u cough it feels like daggers scraping against your throat how long hav u had it forim on day 2
@@abbeyroberts817 sorry. I forgot to say that I did have a cold as well. But the cold just made the build up worse. Yeah I had a sore throat, but only when I swallowed something it hurt. I've had a sore throat for about a week and luckily I've actually recovered, all my symptoms went last night. But my runny nose and build up in my throat is still there. I've been suffering for about 2 and a half weeks now.
@@-DeathKnight bloody hell that's along time my cough is so bad makes me think what it really is Iv been coughing every hour or when u cough so much it feels like your jaw will pop out what helped u iv gone through that many logenges lol
@@-DeathKnight did u take any vitamin d tablets to help
@@abbeyroberts817 I was coughing every 10 minutes at the time. I didn't realize the benefits of vitamin D tablets so I didn't take any. I did use a few other medicines though which really did help.
Great and very useful information, thanks.

Thank you so much for this information!! God bless you all!!🙏
I love sushi. I had some yesterday, they put about 1/2 tsp of that hot mustard and ginger on the side. I can only have a bit of that hot stuff. Too much hot makes me have a coughing, choking reaction.
Thank you for the very informative vedio.
These are so true Couldn’t have explain it any better thank you
Great advise thank you very much and God bless you
Thanks this helped and reminded me to bring out my portable steamer I usually use for colds. I put out my neck from coughing and it took 3 days to recover.
TFS. You are spot on with this information. Suffering with phlegm in back of throat tried some of these remedies and they sure do work I also suffer with my sinuses Blessings to you.🇬🇧🇬🇧
is the mucus gone now?😭 I’m 15 and had this for 2 months and I’m worrrying like crazy.
Thank you my husband is suffering really bad from that mucus stuff in back of his throat , and your information is really helpful .
Gargle with 1/2 tsp sage in warm water.
Or make a cup of tea: hot water, sage,lemon,honey. The lemon and honey take care of the more bitter sage . This works.
Thanks a lot .I love your message

@Mullyool BAHSGA that’s what I was thinking 😭😭😭
Have been looking for this for so long!!
Great info!
drinking fresh lemon juice really helps
Thanks for the well explained information. God bless .
Thanks, I needed this. I'll have to be my own doctor with the help of this video
Very informative!
Slice a pinch of ginger, smear it with salt then dip it in one spoon of honey....and then eat it and chew it. It always helps me
I have horrible build up in my throat. It is terrible and has been an issue for many many years. I just found out that a tea made from 1/4 tsp cayenne pepper, some honey, lemon and water is very helpful. Also steam and nettipots help tremendously. It’s a lot of maintenance but keeps it under control.
Thank you so much for your suggestionsn.
NAC works.
Thank you so much for the good advice 🙏👍☺️
Thank you for this video I have allergies, and sinus conditions and I have access stuff in my throat,
Thank you for this information thank you.
And you be safe and well to.
How about the facial steam? Our family use to hold our face over a pot of very hot water with a towel over our head & breathe in the steam. The old ways are the best! Thanks for all these suggestions.
Thank you for informative briefing
Thanks for the advice brother 🙂
Very helpful. God bless
Thank You for the information. Very helpful!
Try some chamomile tea with some ginger juice and honey before bed it works for me!
Thanks. Wish many more health advice.
Practical solution is given! Thanks
I had the flu which also came with a cold. Took a cough syrup which got rid of the cough. Also took a cold med for nasal congestion which got rid of that. However, I am still bring up yellow mucus which tells me infection is still there. Gonna call my doctor because this is going on too long. Your video was good and gave a lot of helpful tips.
It's due to a virus or bacteria lingering in your system and the bloody doctors haven't got a clue. Three black or aged garlic capsules or tablets plus 2000 mg vit C plus 1 zinc tablet every morning while you are crook, Please note, any more than 2000 mg vit C per day
is toxic. Then 2 black or aged garlic capsules or tablets, 1000 mg vit C and 1 zinc thereafter. Do not take garlic capsules or tablets at night either before or after dinner as they may give you wind and indigestion.
What did the doc say ?
@Esther Fisher• I got myself several air purifiers to help with the dust and pollen, it seems to be working right now.
And I also use a nasal spray and I use a warm nasal flush with saline.
Great information. Thank you
Thank you. Much appreciated.
I'm a Asthmatic, and didn't know this, Thank you for sharing this.

I use to have really bad sore throats when I was a kid/teen. I tried drinking Ginger Ale, Take hot showers or eat something cold but sometimes none of it helps.

Mucus is made a LOT WORSE WHEN U EAT DAIRY PRODUCTS IF U HVE A COLD.
yep! & its even a lot worse when u eat dairy even if u dont have a cold.
These forums are full of people with advice who never had this problem. Gosh, I with they'd find something else to do with their time.
ICE CREAM IS LIKE POISON TO THE BRONCIALS !
Me reading this after eating half a tub of Nutella with a throat full of phglem
If you don't consume dairy or refined foods.
YOU DON'T GET A COLD.
It’s so annoying when ever I try to speak to anyone I have to clear my throat
I feel your pain, it’s like freaking glue in my throat at all times
Thank you for the information. It is beneficial to me.

Great video 👍
thank you. I just subscribed 🙏 Hod Bless
Beta A-1 Casein (cow milk) is probably the #1 cause as it thickens ALL mucus membranes (tonsil, adenoids, gut, skin like excema, lungs, etc)
For me, my diet influences congestion. In particular, eating recommended amount of dark leafy vegetables. This is probably because my diet is poor a lot of the time.
Thanks for your good advice
Thank you great advice
Just subscribed to your channel, thanks for the info...the presentation format is very helpful with words on the side. Menthol cough drops work well, helps to open the lungs, carry them all the time for instant relief.
Can you give me the name or brand name of the menthol cough drops?please.
Me to. I use halls menthol and they work great. The original kind with the black packaging. It’s clears my throat sometimes just with one
