Do you know……..If you are dealing with a persistent cold-cough, you likely have a build-up of mucus in chest. This is not a life-threatening condition, but is uncomfortable, makes it difficult to breathe or sleep, with constant runny nose  and annoying cough.

Allergies: can be caused by outdoor irritants (as pollen, grass, trees), or by indoor irritants (as pets, dust, mold).

Weather: nasal tissues can become inflamed from indoor heating in the winter, air conditioning in the summer, and overall dryness any time of year.

Deviated Septum: is the wall that separates the left and right nasal passage. If it leans over to one side, it could block that air passage and feeling congested.
