- Mucus, commonly known as snot, can be painful when you're sick or have a lot of it, but it's required for your body to be healthy.
- Mucus is a viscous, sticky material that coats the insides of your lungs, mouth, nose, and sinus cavities.
- It is produced by membranes in the nose and sinuses, and its primary function is to trap bacteria, viruses, and allergens such as dust and pollen in your nose, preventing them from spreading throughout your body and making you sick.
- The mucus will ultimately find its way to the stomach, where it will be ejected along with the substances it has absorbed.
- Mucus is produced by the digestive tract, the cervix, and the urinary tract. This essay, however, will focus on respiratory mucus.
