<div class="IPBDescription">but i dont know what to google for</div> This may seem kinda nasty but since i was about 12 years old (7 years now) i have had constant lugis( i dont know the real name, but basically mucus coughed up) and i dont know what the hell is causing it. People who smoke have called it smokers hack or cough. and it is realing annoying. and nasty. i cough up about 8 or so each day. Anyone else have this problem and know what might be causing it? (i dont smoke mind you)

Googlesearch for 'excessive phlegm'. Avoid drinking milk, or eating dairy products. Drink more water. Less soda.
thats what i have
Hey I've had hiccups for a week, it nearly drove me insane and definetly annoyed everyone around me but it ended eventually, it'll probably get better eventually...
edit: something I find really funny, my mom has a quite common (inheritable) disorder that's called 'photic sneezing', when you go from darkness into bright sunshine or sometimes just staring at a light or something you start to sneeze. About 10-30% of all people 'suffer' from this weird and harmless affliction. It's apparently considered a risk factor to fighter pilot(not that it matters in my moms case) which are rumored not to be allowed to fly fighter aircraft(in the US? It's a very unspecific and hard to verify rumor, which is why I enphasize that it's a rumor).
PS: Regarding photic sneezing, of course you can't be a fighter pilot if you have that. Screw up that bad just once and you're liable to send a couple billion dollars into the ground.

Do you cough or sneeze? it may be a symptom of alergies to common airborn dust.
[edit]
Or asthma, I have extreamly minor asthma that manifests it self as a long term cough every couple years, and that is one of the symtoms I experiance quite often. It doesn't often annoy me though.
