Avatar f tn Hi did u talk to ur doc? It's probably the best thing thing is to consult. When I was sick I would drink lots of water & orange juice Orange Juice has vitamin C in it which helps your immune system greatly. Hope this helps & feel better soon good luck!
Avatar n tn For the past 4 years I have been coughing up clear jelly like Mucus Balls. I have been a smoker for 8 years, and I have Asthma. I wake up in the morning and in the middle of the night coughing up a lot of the little mucus balls. It happens a little bit through out the day. Sometimes they are balls and sometimes they are like a hair, but made of mucus. I am very scared and do not have health insurance. I am 25, and thought I was pretty healthy. Please someone, HELP!
Avatar f tn ve also been told that some women, while pregnant of course, have more mucous build up in their bodies because of the extra blood flow...so it probably is just that.if your not coughing up and weird colored mucous or having any other symptoms, I recommend just taking some allergy medicine.
Avatar f tn I’m 26 and am currently going through this situation, I cough a couple clear gellike balls up a day, and sometimes wake up from a cough attack. I am a chronic weed smoker, have been smoking for 4 years and used to smoke cigarettes when I was 14 until 23 years old, I will be going to my local doctors to get a referral for a scan, but I was just hoping someone could help me find out what these gel balls are ?
Avatar n tn like i said if you dont feel better in 2 weeks go back to the doctor.. or if you are coughing up orange bright green or rust coloured mucous or have sharp pains around the bottem of your ribs.. or if you lay down and can not breath then go to the doc asap..
1899640 tn?1321493404 Are you running any fever? Nausea? Vomiting? Diarrhea? When you cough, are you coughing anyhing up? If yes, what color is it? Clear? White? Green? Yellow? Blood tinged?? The most important thing is to stay well hydrated - really push teh liquids - if you don't feel like eating, don't worry too much about that, but it's VERY important to keep the liquids going.
Avatar n tn However, I then started coughing up some stuff, and it was all brownish blood mixed with mucous. I coughed several times, and each time it was dark blood with mucous. Once, It was a rather long piece, with a round bigger piece at one end. I could feel it come up out of my throat area.
Avatar f tn I'm coughing so bad that I'm throwing up...any ideas on what can help it? I've done it twice now, and I think I pulled a muscle in my tummy from coughing and throwing up at the same time.
Avatar f tn THen i was having like an orange color diarrhea, but my stomach feels fine now--still diarrhea in mornings..orangy. and the last two days I have been coughing up a small amount of blood. today i blew my nose there was blood there too. I am not coughing that much. I only cough if I feel the mucus in my throat--but no trouble breathing, no pain, ..I am a nervous wreck about the blood though,,should i go to emergency room..its sunday...I will call my dr tomorrow.
Avatar m tn For the last 40 minutes my mother has been coughing, stretching, filling up with congestion in back of throat and nasal passages. She is 98 and this seems to be happening more and more, with each instance lasting longer and longer. I feel so help less! It's starts as if something went down the wrong and she can't breathe. I put her recliner leg section down, grab a bucket and BOX of Kleenex.
782115 tn?1245684075 He said that his throat and chest felt better after coughing up the mucous. He has been smoking since he was 13, and I am worried that he might have a serious condition. Thanks in advance for your help!
Avatar f tn The very last 2 days of the Moxifloxacin course, my mucous finally turned pale. I'm still coughing up very pale yellow and clear sputum as opposed to the solid yellow stuff I'd had before. Pale yellow, almost clear is ok, right? A friend of mine said she was coughing up clear mucous for 2-3 months. I can't get another chest x-ray at the moment though, as I've just discovered I'm pregnant - that could explain the lower immunity and fatigue. Thank you so much for the reply!
Avatar f tn I am on Protonix, I do not smoke, I gave up coffee and many acid producing foods. The mucous is too thick to swallow and I many times get sick when I am coughing to expel it, which is probably injuring my esophagus even further.
782115 tn?1245684075 My boyfriend, who is 21, has a chronic cough accompanied by a very thick mucous. This morning he coughed up a large amount of mucous with a little blood in it. The sputum was thick and looked like a giant glob of petroleum jelly - he says that this is normal, but my mucous is not so thick and gel-like. He has been smoking since he was 13 and I am worried about him. Any help is appreciated! Thanks!
Avatar n tn First time mom.. I have no clue what it is supposed to look like. I've heard red-ish & snotty? I've been sick for the past 2 days coughing up a storm. My stomach has been starting to cramp and every time I go to the bathroom I have what looks like snot on my liner, could it be the start of losing my mucous plug? No judging! I feel dumb asking.
Avatar m tn ve been seeking an answer to these symtoms for a while. I often cough up blood along with black mucous also. I need some kind of relief soon.
Avatar n tn I get this same thing when I laugh, if I start laughing it makes me cough and then I cough up phlem, not a whole lot, but enough, to where after I'm done coughing, I have to keep clearing my throat of it. My Doc did a chest X Ray on me and they didn't find anything. I don't smoke never have and I work out everyday.
Avatar f tn recently my asthma has flared up and I was given new inhaler (the orange one) along with the blue one. this was on Monday afternoon (around 5pm) didn't take the orange in haler until 8pm that night (dose is 2 puffs twice a day). while it has improved slightly my cough has not gone away (though most of the chest tightness and feeling of inflammation has). I was told to go see my family doctor but didn't get to make an appointment, should I go back to the walk-in clinic?
Avatar m tn My son who is 12 is having episodes of coughing up blood every 60 days --it started in March of 2012 -- it sometimes starts with sharp pains in his right side (front) -- or sometimes he just coughs up blood -- the coughing up of blood lasts for about 20 mins -- he coughs up about 1/2 of a specimen container of blood -- he says it feels like there is something he needs to cough up -- he coughs -- not too hard - and then spits into a cup and it is blood.
Avatar m tn What happens then is that the mucous will collect/pool in your lungs setting them up for infection in the first place. Some lucky people who smoke don't get COPD, but other unfortunate souls who are genetically predisposed for it will. I suggest you follow up with your doctor to make sure that your GERD treatment is effective and that you quite smoking.
Avatar f tn It can be brought on by drinking ice water and I’ll cough until loose mucous is expelled. Also, mucous will accumulate in the throat when I’m sleeping until I wake up choking. Water isn’t the only time, but it will cause it every time. I am a female, 5’7”, weigh 145, take no medications or herbal supplements. eat foods low in fat and consume hardly any alcohol. I’ve seen an ENT who says, “You have a lot of mucous in your throat.” I’ve tried prescription antacids.
593530 tn?1263847957 I brought Brody to his pediatrician last week because he was very congested. After a nose swab was tested it was determined that he has RSV. Since it's a virus it can't be treated with antibiotics, so she instructed me to get a cool mist humidifier and keep his nasal pasages clear by using saline solution. The only symptom he's had is the congestion. There's no fever, coughing, mucous coming out, etc.
Avatar f tn I also got coughing so hard I coughed up/vommited mucous 3 times and it was very thick. When I start coughing it's hard to stop and I feel like i can't breath. This morning I thought it might have gone away and I feel a little better but I still can't take a full deep breath without coughing, I've looked up symptoms and think it might possibly be bronchitis?
Avatar n tn I have been having a cold since Thursday with a lot of coughing and while the feverish feeling is gone, I am still coughing and today morning my right ear feels blocked and very weird. I was wondering is this very serious and what can I do to remove the blockade on the right ear?
Avatar n tn Thanks a bunch for the quick reply. I do not have any cough or breathlessness. I am just worried about my chest pain. Docotor also did ECG and he said it is normal. I also have upper back pain (more intense than chest pain) I am not sure if this back pain is radiating around the chest. Please advise on any home remedies / any tests that I need to get done.
Avatar f tn Okay so I'm 35w6d and I just got up to empty my bladder, I wiped myself and everything was fine. I go to lay back down for like two mins. Then I started coughing (yes I'm sick) I sat up to grab some tissue paper to blow my nose, and coughed again this time a small gush of fluids came out like I peed on myself. I went back to the bathroom sat on the toilet and wiped, this time it was a thick yellowish strand of mucous on the toilet paper. I don't know what to think.
