How Do I Get Relief From Excessive Salty Sputum, Acid Reflux And Allergic To Dust And Mold? Barium Swallow Not Working And Chest Xray Also Clear.
I have been coughing for over a year excessive clear salty sputum at times. Diagnosed with acid reflux, no releif so far, allergies to dust and mold, monthly needles still no relief. Barium swallow showed nothing, chest xray clear very frustrating to say the least. Any other suggestions??

Hi,
If you are allergic or suffer from recurrent infection then due to post nasal discharge also you will suffer from coughing with clear salty sputum. So get checked with ENT doctor once to rule out any sinus or adenoid problem. You can try with antihistamine with montelukast for a week with doctor consultation and control to reflux. This will help you.
