I have a lot of green mucus building up in my nose and chest. it is getting harder to breathe. what kind of medicine should i take?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Over the counter med: Saline nasal sprays or irrigation may be helpful to wash out your nose and sinuses. Mucinex (guaifenesin) may also be helpful as well. Follow the directions on the box and make sure you drink plenty of water to help the medicine work.
