What Causes Feeling Of Something In Throat And Green Mucus With Black Spots?
I always have a feeling of something in the back of my throat, and sometimes I'll bring up green mucus with black spots or clumps in it. I'm 25 I don't smoke no chest pain. I did just recently move from Texas to Kansas, but I have no allergeries or other symptoms I know of

Hello,
There could be two things like the allergic problems in nose cause mucus production but as you said there is no such problem then it seems there is reflux disease .
In reflux disease there is irritation in the throat because of acidic reflux from the stomach to the food pipe and causing problems . In such case you might have belching or heart burn . In addition if you have such problems more in the morning then there are more chances of reflux being the cause.
If you have such problem more in the evening then there is more of dust exposure and there is allergic mucus production in the chest .
you should consult a doctor and get examined.
Initially you need to take antibiotics and anti histaminics .
In doubt do reply
