A member asked:
I spit out brown mucus every morning but i am not a smoker and do not work in dusty environments this only started after i had a myringotomy in my ear?

Drainage: you had a myringotomy. The ear canal drains into the back of the throat. Every morning you are coughing out the ear fluid drainage. The drainage may continue and your hearing may also. Hope this helps. You can gargle with mouth wash or salt water for a week to see if it helps.
