A member asked:
I can feel the mucus down the back of my throat and it hasnt stopped this entire week. should i get an antibiotic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Mucus: Please do see your doctor. He/she can decide if you need an antibiotic. You can ask about a natural nasal spray called Xlear (pronounced "Clear.") It breaks up the biofilm in the nasal passages so the germs don't multiply. Peace and good health.
