What's this stuff in my throat?



Check these out, too...

  • My feet are so stinky. Help!
  • Please make my nose stop bleeding!
  • Will my yeast infection go away by itself?
  • Why do my fingers turn red when I'm cold?
  • Why is my tummy so rumbly?
What's phelgm? I have it in my throat a lot... How do I get rid of it?

 

Hey, girl. Phlegm is completely normal. It’s a thick mucus that is produced when you have a cold or allergies, or sometimes just when it’s cold outside. 

 

Unfortunately, to completely rid your body of this icky problem, you have to wait ‘til your cold is gone. If you think it’s allergy-related, talk to your mom about getting some over the counter decongestant or allergy medication.

 

But, to temporarily relieve yourself from this common problem, try taking hot showers, letting the warm water run on your chest. Also, drink lotsa liquids: especially hot tea with honey.

Hey, ok so in the winter my nose gets really runny and it gets into my throat. It gets so bad that I can't even laugh without having to cough because of the phlegm. Obviously now tht the weather is getting warmer it's not a very big problem but it happens whenever I get sick. Do you have any tips to help?




hey! make sure you've got a pack of travel tissues at all times Smile
