Answers:
Yes, you should definitely spit it out.. When you swallow it, it just goes back down into your lungs.. Avoid dairy products for the time being - they help produce phlegm.. You should tell a parent you are having this phlegm issue so they can take you to the doctor.. You could have an upper respiratory infection or perhaps just allergies.. If the doctor does need to prescribe something - just make sure he/she knows you would prefer a liquid medication..Health Question & Answer
