Best Answer

Smoking suppresses the formation of mucus (phlegm). The overproduction is a natural rebound reaction. As long as it is clear, not greenish, you have nothing to worry about; it's just part of the healing process. If it doesn't stop in a few weeks, it might be a good idea to check with your doctor.
