Is light brown mucos when beinh coughed up a reason to go to doctor?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sputum: The material you cough up is a reflection of some inflammatory process which may involve any portion of the respiratory system. The color is only relevant if you know where the sputum is originating and the clinical condition causing the cough. If you have a question about this the best way in which to get a logical answer is to see a doctor and be examined. Good luck.
