Those of you who have asthma have you had mucus plugs?

If so, what has helped you in dealing with excess mucus and mucus plugs? Thank you.

  1. Hi April04 and thanks for your post. While I'm hopeful others in the community will respond with their own personal experiences, I thought you might find it helpful to look over this material on that very topic: https://copd.net/clinical/mucus-with-copd/. Please note, it is from our sister site: COPD.net, but I feel the content will provide you with some additional insight to your mucus concerns. Wishing you the best, Leon (site moderator)

    1. I have! What has helped me is daily mucous clearing with a PEP device ( such as an apace or Aerobic) and keeping my inflammation under control. Other things that i have tried are massage therapy/physical therapy to help clear mucous. It is important to note that I am not a doctor and these are my personal experiences. I wish you well.
