Anyone coughing up all sorts of crap at the moment?
Discussion
Initial warning, this might be a little gross as i detail some of the movements of my nose and throat, so leave now if easily upset!
For about a week now (and seemingly worse since this cold weather), from the moment i wake up, i feel like i've got loads of green st at the back of my throat and nose. I dont feel ill, but its just a horrible feeling. Trying to cough it up just doesnt work. The other day i half sneezed and a really solid but small yellow thing came out, like a breadcrumb (what the fk).
It's horrible because the only way i can rid it is by swallowing it a little bit at a time. (eugh). It kinda makes me want to be sick, but i cant think of any other way/cure.
I've not been ill recently so dont think its an infection or anything.
Just prior to writing this, I just coughed and brought a bit up and nearly puked. It was a solid hard piece of green/brown st, it was flat and about the size of a 5p. What the hell. I'll also find that this gunk has tiny traces of blood in it, and i'll have the occasional nosebleed in winter, but i assume this is all down to the cold weather.
Thing is, i regularly have this problem, but on a much lesser scale. In the morning when i wake up, my mouth still stays all crappy but usually goes away after an hour or two, but in this cold weather its staying with me for the whole day.
I always look after my mouth and throat, i dont smoke and brush my teeth at least 2 times a day, sometimes more, and i try and get a bit of fruit and vegetables here and there.
Im not in pain or anything, it just feels and tastes st.
