Mucus produced by our mucous membranes can become a source of discomfort when it is present in excess. Excess mucus in the back of the mouth, throat, sinuses, respiratory tract, and lungs can seriously affect daily life.
Although a certain amount of mucus in the airways is normal and necessary to trap bacteria, viruses, and other harmful particles, problems can occur when the immune system becomes weakened. This may lead to excessive mucus production, resulting in sinusitis, sinus pressure, chest congestion, lung congestion, and difficulty breathing.
