➡️ How to Get Rid of Mucus and Phlegm
One of the most common problems that occurs during a respiratory infection is the accumulation of mucus and phlegm in the chest and the airways. This can lead to dyspnea, shortness of breath, discomfort, and sometimes wheezing. The human body uses coughing as a natural mechanism to get rid of excess mucus. But sometimes, natural coughing is just not enough.

➡️ Postural Drainage Technique
This is when a technique known as postural drainage can serve as an efficient way to clear the lungs simply by adjusting your physical posture. It’s a technique that uses the laws of gravity to help get rid of excess mucus and secretions. There are several different positions that can be used during postural drainage for each of the different lobes of the lungs.

➡️ How to Perform Postural Drainage
You can lie down on the bed facing upwards and keep your hips above chest level by placing pillows under your legs. As your body is tilted in this position, the mucus from the lower part of the lungs will start draining upwards so that it can be coughed up and expelled more easily by coughing. Keep in mind, postural drainage is best when performed under the supervision of a Respiratory Therapist or doctor. So, depending on your condition, be sure to check with a qualified medical professional before using this technique.
