A member asked:

My son is 4 year old. he has problem of having mucus after consuming orange. what should i do?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Sensitivity: Your son could have a sensitivity to citric acid. Does he get increased mucus with anything else? Stop all citrus products for 2 weeks, try again. If he gets congested again, that is the cause.
