Hi, I am a 14 year old male, and have a problem in my throat. Its a sticky thick substance either phlegm/mucus/thick saliva, i don't really know what it is. I don't smoke or do any types of drugs. I have had this problem for 6 months. I have NO other symptoms such as fever, no cough, no breathing problems, no heart burn, no blocked nose. Although sometimes my throat hurts in the morning and feels uncomfortable. Went to doctor and prescribes antibiotics, although it didn't help. PLZ HELP AND TELL ME IF THIS IS SOMETHING SERIOUS.

    If you drink lots of water, your mucus thins out. That might help.

    Maybe it's from allergies?
