Mucus doesn't come out

Hi,

My husband has been suffering for four days already. He has mucus down by the chest and on throat and it doesn't come out.

He has no cough. When he is able to cough the mucus out, the throat is really dry and mucus is really sticky and really dark green.
Sometimes he complains for sore throat, but it is not severe problem.

I gave him Bryonia 30 c three times, but it did not help. (Some allopathic liquid did not help either.)

He says he just feels tired and 'sick'. During the day he said had a little bit nausea. And the problem is worse on mornings. When he puts his head down he gets headache.
There is no other clear symptoms. No real cough, no nasal problems. The tongue looks clear. He has nothing special to say about thirst.

Could someone help him, please?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
I forgot: I also gave him Causticum 30 c three times, but it either did not help.

Kali Bichromate 30 would help him.

Thanks Girilal,

My husband has taken two doses and says his the chest feels much better. The mucus has not come out, but the pressure is dissapearing.

But now he has sore throat. I did not see it to be red, but the tongue was white coated. It is sore when he swollows.
He has a feeling that his ears are a little bit aching, too. Nose is still clear, unless he puts his head down and then there is water coming out.
He cannot get any mucus out, but if he can, it is not that yellow anymore.

He has a history of angina/tonsillitis, so his tonsils have been operated. He did have tonsillitis a year ago without white cover, but the labresults showed the diagnosis. He himself says it feels the same this time, too.

How will I continue with him so that he will avoid antibiotics?

Hello Girilal or anybody else,

Could someone help my husband? Since I have not received a reply, I have given two doses of Mercurius 30 c for him. That has not really been helpful and symptoms are quite the same:
towards evening there is slight dry cough, the tongue back there is sore as well as throat. I cannot see anything odd on the throat. He says he feels hot, now he has headache again, I guess the glands are swollen a bit.

The sickness started already a week ago and I am afraid if we go and see the doctor he gets antibiotics because of his history. I cannot see any difference on my own if I should give Hep Sulfur, Lycopodium, Lachesis... so I would appriciate some help.

For sore throat you can ask him to take Belladonna 30. Seems like his sinus are draining.

Hi Girilal,

He has taken two doses of Belladonna. In the afternoon he said he is better, but now, towards the evening he complains more: the throat is still sore, the mucus is travelling down again and he has a bit of dry cough.

We are leaving for holiday for one week tomorrow (after 12 hours). I would appriciate if you you could advise me what to give him next asap, please?

I did read your chain about tonsillitis. I don't have those (different type of Mercurius) at home, would you suggest to start that kind of treatment?
