A member asked:
Why does my body produce phlegm even when i am not feeling sick? when should i be concerned about the phlegm production?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Phlegm is mucus: The phlegm or mucus you secrete is normal even in a non- diseased state. Even without an illness you can produce excess mucus because of allergy - allergic rhinitis. Or you can produce it without an identifiable irritant - non-allergic rhinitis. This is a very common thing that i see patients for on a daily basis... It may just be you.
