A member asked:
Mucus becomes obstructed in my throat in between lungs and throat and can't clear it, what should i do to remove my discomfort, please help?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Warm.: Sometime warm shower or warm drinks can help to thin the mucus and dissolve it. If not, you may consider Mucinex (guaifenesin) (over the counter).
