That constant feeling of phlegm stuck in your throat, frequent throat-clearing, or a “lump” that never goes away is very common — and it’s not always a cold.
Here are the real (and often ignored) reasons.
🦠 1️⃣ Post-nasal drip (mucus from your nose, not your throat)
Many people think the mucus is made in the throat.
👉 In reality, it often drips down from the nose and sinuses.
Hidden triggers include:
mild sinus inflammation
dusty environments
frequent fan or AC use
sleeping flat on your back
Common signs
thick mucus mainly in the morning
frequent need to clear your throat
