Why am i all phlegmy?


Question:
It only seems to be there when i brush my teeth in a morning. I sort of lean over when i brush them then i start to feel the phlegm gathering. Other than this instance, i have no other symptoms of flu or anything else. Please help?

Answers:
If you're only getting these symptoms in the morning, it leads me to believe that the air in your room may be responsible for the morning phlegm bouts. If you are a smoker, that would be the most likely cause, but you don't seem like a smoker. I'd be more inclined to think your room is extremely moist and the air is perhaps stagnant. Breathing that air while you're asleep can cause your lungs to inflame a little bit and you'll feel it in the mornings. If you place a small fan in your room to help the air circulate a little, that may be all the cure you really need. Or if you have a dehumidifier, that will also work. Take care of yourself.

Mucus stuff is supposed to be trapping germs and bacteria and germs that could get you sick. Any other symptoms you have? There's this one respiratory problem where you have phlegmy stuff in your lungs. Try asking your doctor.
1. Consult a doc , i think you go for a blood check the name is complete blood picture, in the result check for the esonophil content. if this is more than the acceptable range (3%-6%) then you get phlegm and other resp disorders.

2. the same doc will prescribe meds. possibly that which contain
(diethyle carbamazice citrate + chlor pheneramine maleate ) i think i ve spelled right and a b complex medicine to ward off the side effect of this.

3. My suggestion is follow a 30 day routine to get rid off the phlegm on a permanent basis , by increasing ur immunity.

a. drink 500 ml water in empty stomach. don't eat or drink for 20 mins.

b. avoid citrus foods/ drinks after 4 pm or any during moist weather.

c. keep your hair cut short so that it does not sweat a lot

d. stay away from dusty/humid areas.

e. inhale steam daily for atleast 5 mins and if u find any irritation / indication of catching cold or cough next day , add 3 or 4 drops of eucalyptus oil to the steam device

f. keep a watch on the food taken previous day to know what causes discomfort and avoid eating/drinking them.

g.be happy and feel light at heart-- this chases away any disease.
people usually get phlemy when they have respiratory tract diseases,cold or flu but in ur own case it could be a psychological thing or maybe you picked up d habit when u were younger to always bring out phlegm when brushing.If u're not ok with this answer,see ur doc
