I'm a bit sick, and I just inhaled a whole bunch of that yellow colored mucous that was in the back of my nose. I had to swallow it when it hit my throat.

If you have just inhaled a large amount of phlemy mucous, the first thing you should do is try to cough it up. Coughing helps to clear your airways and get rid of any excess mucous that may be causing discomfort or difficulty breathing.
Inhaling phlemy mucous can be uncomfortable and annoying, but it is not usually harmful. However, if the mucous is contaminated with bacteria or other pathogens, it could potentially lead to a respiratory infection. If you experience any symptoms such as fever, chest pain, or difficulty breathing, it is important to seek medical attention.
The best way to prevent inhaling phlemy mucous is to take steps to reduce the amount of mucous in your respiratory system. This can include staying hydrated, avoiding irritants like smoke and pollution, and practicing good hygiene to prevent the spread of respiratory infections.
Coughing up phlemy mucous is a normal and healthy response to protect your respiratory system. It helps to clear out any excess mucous, allergens, or irritants that may be present in your airways. However, if you are coughing up large amounts of mucous or it is accompanied by other symptoms, it is best to consult a doctor.
If you experience frequent or persistent coughing and production of phlemy mucous, it may be a sign of an underlying issue such as allergies, asthma, or an infection. It is important to monitor your symptoms and seek medical attention if they worsen or do not improve over time.
