👉 Mucorrhea is a condition where the lining of the mouth and throat becomes inflamed due to excessive mucus production. This can cause discomfort, especially when swallowing food or liquids. The exact cause of mucorrhea is not fully understood but it's believed to be caused by an overactive immune system, inflammation from the mouth, and possibly a genetic predisposition. It's important to seek medical attention if you experience recurrent infections in your throat or mouth.
