A member asked:

Almost every morning especially when winter starts i cough up yellow mucus in the morning. i often catch colds. i cough only in the mornings.

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Chronic bronchitis: This could be chronic bronchitis. Are you a smoker? Not unusual to have cold after cold and some cough, but see your MD for exam of lungs.
