What is the cause of yellow phlegm in the morning? What is the cure?

I have been producing yellow (sometimes green) phlegm in the morning for the past two months. The weird thing is that I am not coughing. The phlegm just comes out when I spit or when I try to clear my throat. I saw my doctor 5 times already during this period and all of them think it's allergies. But after taking Clarenex, Nasonex, Amoxicillin, and Erythromicin it's still there. Please help. Thank you.

green phlemg is a sign of pseudomonas infection …may b becuse u r taking all those anti biotic u r not having cough …
use a tab of cefotaxime 3 times a day for 5 days
or cefdinir or ceftibuten or
chloramphenicol 250 mg 3 times a day …5 days
or use colistin ..which is more potential…

How do I get rid of phlegm in my throat?

I work in a call centre and for the last month, I've noticed (probably because I've been talking constantly) that I have a consistent buildup of phlegm in my throat and that I'm coughing every twenty minutes or so in an attempt to clear it - often in the middle of a call. I'm not a smoker, and I drink a lot of water - I'll go through at least 2L in a day. It's starting to annoy my co-workers, understandably, and it's also causing my voice to crack and waver on the phone. I don't feel sick and when I am able to cough phlegm up (which isn't often - it feels constantly stuck in there) it's clear, which would suggest that it isn't a sinus or bronchial infection. I never drink soda, generally avoid sugary food, and never drink milk as I'm lactose intolerant. So what the heck is going on? And more importantly, how do I fix it?

do you suffer from allergies (even seasonal ones)?

allergies can cause phlegm buildup in the back of your throat which can cause irritation.

try taking an over the counter non-drowsy allergy medication or talk to your dr about taking a once daily pill.

otherwise try sucking on hard candies or ice throughout the day to help.

i have severe allergies and i often have buildup in the back of my throat as well. i take once daily allegra-d and it seems to help quite a bit

good luck

Ive been really sick for the past few days and started coughing up phlegm.

I have a fever and a sore throat, which just makes the phlegm and coughing hurt more i guess. I have no apetite for food either. I cant go out and buy any special remedies or stuff since im not even 14 yet.

How can i get rid of the phlegm with household supplies?

buy strepsils.. it will make ur sorethroat less painful and makes u feel relaxed… and try not drinking cold drinks and food.. try soups and the like…use bactidol or any mouthwas right after you brush ur teeth so the bacteria inside your mouth will be removed.. and lasty.. try asking your parents about it…

What causes phlegm to congest the throat during a sore throat?

I've had a cold for a few days and have had the worst phlegm and coughing. Just wondering why congestion happens with sickness.

Viral infections like a cold can cause inflammation of the airways of the lungs. This inflammation can cause excessive phlegm build up in the chest. After the cold is gone, it is possible for the inflammation to linger. This inflammation can last for several weeks. Sometimes this inflammation may linger for 3 to 6 months. Eventually the inflammation will go away, and then the excessive phlegm will stop.
