Suffering From Cold, Cough, Worried About Mucus In Throat. Will Swallowing Mucus Lead To Vomiting?
Hi, I have a cold right now, and I have been awake for a good part of the night coughing and worrying about how much mucus is in my throat . It seems to have caused me a bit of an upset stomach. I was just wondering if swallowing my mucus would make me throw up? I am completely terrified of throwing up, and I have been up all night trying to spit out the mucus so this wouldn t happen.
