A member asked:
Can post nasal drip collecting over night cause brown mucus in throat in the morning?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The a.m mucus sample is usually concentrated and thus may look yellow. IN the presence of a sinus infection, the mucus (when present) should be consistently yellow or green.
