How do i spit out the phlegm in my throat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hydrate really well.: Saltwater gargles are very helpful. Mix a teaspoon of salt in 8 oz of warm water – gargle with this several times a day. You can gargle with aloe vera juice a couple of times per day. A mixture of chamomile tea with honey & a small amount of lemon juice is good. Don't be afraid to let your spit fly.
