I get a really phlegm-y throat after eating?!
Question: I get a really phlegm-y throat after eating.?
This happens about 90% of the time after I eat ANYTHING. It's not because of dairy; I'm really picky when it comes to dairy (I haven't drunk milk in years.) It's extremely annoying having to clear my throat and cough every time I eat. Any ideas yahoo answerers.? Thanks.Health Question & Answer
Answers:
* What is phlegm.?
Phlegm is released from glands in the walls of the bronchi (airways) and from cells lining the nose and sinuses.
* What symptoms can be associated with excess phlegm production.?
* Runny nose.
* Irritant cough.
* Inflamed nasal membranes.
* Why did I get it.?
Excess phlegm production may result from infection, allergic reaction or by inhalation of irritants (e.g. smoke, FOOD). Excess phlegm production can be a sign that there is an imbalance in your system. When you have an imbalance, you are susceptible to various diseases which can settle in weak areas of your body. You can check to see if there is an imbalance in your system. Your resistance may be low, which can be caused by poor nutrition. Health Question & Answer
