Sputum(balgam)

2016-10-14 09:18:49
Sir/Ma'am, I was suffering from cold/cough, I took Allercet DC and Taximo, but didn't complete the entire course. I am now cured with cold n cough completely, and left with Sputum (balgam - yellow n white both types) stucked in my throat. Every five minutes, I have to go and clear it. It's very irritating for me. Every time I feel it is there in my throat. Please help me over this.
