Inspissated mucus refers to mucus that has become thickened and sticky, often due to dehydration or inflammatory processes. This condition can occur in various medical contexts, such as respiratory diseases or chronic sinusitis, where the mucus production is increased but drainage is impaired. The thickened mucus can obstruct airways, leading to difficulty in breathing and increased risk of infection. Treatment typically involves hydration, mucolytics, or addressing the underlying cause.
