coughing up guck

by shellley, May 14, 2006 12:00AM
For the past month+ I have been coughing up guck. Always clear. Usually mucous-y and loose. But sometimes gel like. Could it be allergy related? Today my chest felt tight. Is that related? thanks so much for your help

When that happens to me, it usually starts out as a cold.  Then I end up coughing up the guck for a couple months.  I think it turns into a sinus infection or something. With me, I usually can't stop coughing until I cough something up (I call it a slime ball).  If this sounds like what you have, try to mix one half red wine vinegar and one half honey.  Drink one tablespoon every hour for a couple days.  Should help clear it up.
