A member asked:
Coughing up foamy mucus, when i cough i can hear the mucus bubbling in my lungs. have been on antibiotics for 5 days. should i be concerned?

Mgt: Mucus may thin and change color at the end of a lower respiratory tract infection, but the foaminess of the secretions is of concern. One possible cause is a build up of fluid in the lungs. Please check with your PCP.
