What Your Mucus Color Actually Means (White, Yellow, Green & Clear)

The colour of your snot / mucus can tell you key meanings about your issue or dust mite allergy

Why Are You Coughing Up Thick, Sticky Mucus?

• Increased Amount of Mucus:  in your nose / throat / mouth. Your body makes more mucus to trap and dust mite particles from your airways.

• Thick Mucus Consistency: The mucus will be thicker and stickier. Thick and sticky mucus gets trapped in airways. This allows your body to stop the dust mite allergens from entering further into your body
• White Mucus Colour: White Blood Cells, are part of your immune system and rush to the scene of the dust mite allergen. As they gather in the mucus, they can change its colour to white. The more of these white blood cells, the more white your mucus will be.
