Thick green mucus in the morning - scared

[EmilyK83]

Bit of a weird one, I've had problems with reflux and post nasal drip for a while, but recently in the mornings I've been woken up by the back of my nose and throat feeling clogged. When I clear it, it's a big lump of green mucus, really thick and sticky.

Clears during the day - it's just first thing in the morning that it's like this but it terrifies me...keep thinking COPD or worse :(

It is nothing more than a your post nasal drip. A lot of people ask about it on here and I suffer from it as well and have done for 10 odd years and it has never come to anything else

I tell you something that has helped a little is a antihistamine called desloratadine your doctor can give you it and also an extra pillow to prop your head up is said to help. But you may find like me the post nasal drip gets worse in the summer months.

The hacking up of crap in the mornings is not a very nice thing but it is at time part and parcel of it all. Drink plenty of water help thin stuff down
