Phlegm is the thick, viscous substance secreted by the mucous membrane of the respiratory tract whose role is to combat infections, especially in the event of a severe cold. It accumulates in the throat and chest, congestion, and the body uses a cough to expel it. Excessive amounts of phlegm commonly occur in the case of colds, flu, sinusitis and viral or bacterial infections, as well as allergic reactions due to asthma, hay fever or damaged vocal cords. In these cases, people often experience fever, weakness, runny nose, constant coughing and difficulty breathing as well. If left untreated, phlegm can lead to bronchial clogging and secondary respiratory tract infections.
