What to Avoid When Clearing Mucus

• Smoking or secondhand smoke – Irritates the respiratory tract.
• Dairy products – Can thicken mucus in some people.
• Excess sugar – May weaken immunity and worsen inflammation.
• Overusing decongestant sprays – Can lead to rebound congestion.
• Suppressing coughs completely – Coughing helps clear mucus naturally.

When to See a Doctor

If your symptoms persist for more than 10 days, worsen, or are accompanied by fever, difficulty breathing, or colored mucus (yellow/green), consult a healthcare provider to rule out infections or other conditions.
