Mucus constantly making my voice break

I think I got my voice. However my mucus is VERY annoying! It's constantly getting in my way and is making sound as if my voice is breaking. Anyone know how to get rid of this mucus?

I have this problem too. I often have to stop and clear my throat. I think it's from my allergies. Unfortunately I don't have health insurance and I haven't found anything over the counter that's capable of helping with this problem so if anyone has some advice I'd love to hear it too!

This has been a real problem for me as well. When using a male voice I have no issue but as soon as I switch to my female voice I have to clear my throat from the mucous. I asked my voice coach about it at one of the last sessions we had together and her advice was to stay hydrated. She also mentioned that certian people seemed just to have more mucus on their vocal chords than other people. I also suspect a medication that I take makes it worse.

Please let us know if you find something that works.

I have a mucus problem but it's much more controlled with two things my ENT recommended after a full nasal exam. The first is NeilMed Sinus Rinse, which is essentially just a formula to ensure that the distilled/filtered water you use for rinsing is also PH neutral. The rinse breaks up thicker mucus and helps rinse it out, leaving just the base sinus mucus membranes. The second thing I use is a prescription inhaler twice per day that greatly reduces mucus formation in the sinus cavities and thus reduces how much mucus flows into the throat. It works for me and I have allergies that can be quite severe at certain times of the year.

It is exactly what I was going to recommend... NeilMed Sinus Rinse... Twice daily at the beginning and than once a day. Totally natural, all the allergenic particles are evacuated... dust, pollen and all... no agression to the sinus membrane... And there is also some homeopathic products but I do not know if they are sold in US... For allergy, there is for example Luffheel... or some other stuff but I would start with those...

Love,

Jenny

Where do you get this NeilMed stuff? Is it prescription or is it just something I can pick up at the pharmacy??

Many people have mentioned this type of treatment to me but I'm really not fond of the idea of running something through my nose. If it works though it'll be well worth it. I never used to have allergies so maybe I just have a build up of Allergens in there that are causing this. Especially now.... spring time... yay....

Thank you for the help ladies! Much appreciated!

NeilMed is a non-prescription treatment often found in the same section of the pharmacy as allergy and other nasal treatments. There are also non-prescription inhalers that help reduce mucus formation but mine was strong enough that a prescription was recommended, at least for the first several months. So this can be treated via non-prescription methods if that's what someone wants to try.

The NeilMed sinus rinse is very easy to use. It's a squeeze bulb and the instructions are very clear. I thought I might gag, choke or do something unexpected the first time I tried it but it worked exactly as described for me. Your mileage may vary, of course.

      Amazingly I have found many cis women are absolutely wrong in their assumptions about bra fittings. I knew an elderly lady that said, "I have been a C cup since school, I just buy a bigger band size as my breasts grow." This is completely WRONG as the band should always fit snug with they gore firmly against the chest.    One of CNA's came into Torrid and I helped her pick out a new bra. She didn't even understand band size was inches and cups/band combo were based off Victorian shirt sizes.  She said, "how do you know so much?"   We found her proper fitting band size, then found a cup she fit.    How can people that take the vast majority of bra users know so little about them? Seems most cis women just use "try it on" only.

      As has been said many times, this is not a black and white issue. Sure.  I get it that a MtF person that has gone through full male puberty and "transitioned" 6 months ago probably has an advantage in some sports.  But these bans affect elementary school kids too. I mean, banning trans women from Darts?  Chess?

      Worry refers to the thoughts, images, emotions, and actions of a negative nature in a repetitive, uncontrollable manner that results from a proactive cognitive risk analysis made to avoid or solve anticipated potential threats and their potential consequences.

      Good morning    Now @Abigail Genevieve and @Mmindy what makes you so certain I didn’t mean it to say bee itch certificate?  lol. Thanks Mindy. I was asleep when you saw this and fixed it, and yes Abigail, as a moderator I could have fixed it myself, or weren’t you pointing out the irony of that?   I use Alexis as my alarm to get up.  And I set the ringer to be two guys telling me to get up.  I was so sound asleep when they started telling me to get up that it scared me and my first thought were I had over slept.  Since I have a difficult time getting to sleep as early as I have to in order to get enough sleep I at least cut back my normal awake time to get ready.  But now I have to do my hair and get going.   enjoyed my coffee and a little time catching up   see you all later, for its hi ho hi ho it’s off to work I go.   Willow

      Republicans have long committed grave errors by emphasizing their social agenda and moral issues instead of just focusing on the economy, lowering taxes, keeping the public safe, building a strong national defense, promoting business, touting reasonable immigration policies, etc.   The country would thrive economically under Trump's tax and business policies. That's a fact. Another four years of Biden will run this country into the ground financially (including all of our 401Ks and IRAs). But the GOP continues to play right into the Dems' hands by leading with their moral crusades instead of staying the course and trusting their fiscal policies to win the day...

      Thanks.  I will look those up in the document, hopefully tomorrow.   I always look at the source on stuff like this, not what someone, particularly those adversarial, have to say.
