What does it mean when you have fluid building up in the back of your throat but you cant cough it up?

The liquid that is building up at the back of the throat is actually mucus (sometime referred to as phlegm). This symptom is known as post nasal drip. Post Nasal Drip results due to your body being unable to get rid of mucus regularly, usually due to nasal or sinus congestion. Thus the mucus is forced down the back of the throat. When the mucus become trapped in the sinuses/nose it gets thicker, and it is this thicker tenacious mucus that is getting stuck on the back of your throat. You can try mucinex or sinuswars2 to treat this problem. Post Nasal Drip foten also causes throat irritation, throat infection and chronic coughs.


Why might a person who breaths through his or her mouth at night tend to have a sore throat in the morning?

The nose warms and moisturizes the air you breath in. It could be that the cool dry air coming directly from the mouth is drying the throat and irritating it. Alternately, it could be that the reason for the mouth breathing is that the nasal passages are stuffy and mucus from them is dripping into the throat at night when you lie back (post nasal drip). This can be irritating.

Why is it bad to breathe through your mouth for too long?

Because there is no hair or mucus (I know it's gross if you imagine it) to block out dirt in the air that we breathe in. Whereas in the nose, there are. And the air we breathe in through the mouth will go down to our throat and cause our throat to be dry and we will develop cough or flu (maybe).
