The Real Causes of Constant Phlegm and Mucus in Throat and How to Get Rid of It!

The human body naturally creates mucus to lubricate and protect the throat and sinuses. However, when this production becomes excessive, it can imply the presence of a persistent infection, acid reflux, or inflammation. Here are the main reasons of this mucus buildup, as well as natural solutions to fix it.

1. Acid reflux

The most popular yet often undiagnosed cause of excess mucus is acid reflux. This happens when the valve at the top of the stomach doesn’t close properly, allowing stomach acid to back up into the esophagus and into the throat. This acid reflux may be followed by heartburn, but in many cases, only the symptoms connected to the mucus appear, a condition called silent reflux or gastrolaryngeal reflux disease (GLR).

Natural solution:

2. Antacid medications
