What Causes Excess Phlegm On Throat Plus A Coating On Tongue?
my mother has yellow sticky phlegm stuck on throat and cheeks of mouth..also a coating of tongue...no pain or fever but she clears her throat all the time. Doc did a swab and no infection, she said it feels like there is a ball of something in her throat
