Mucus build-up plagues people during a post-nasal drip, cold or flu, sinusitis, tonsillitis, strep throat, catarrh, laryngitis, chicken pox, measles, mononucleosis, whooping cough or croup. Allergies to certain food products can contribute to mucus build-up as well. When your system is weak from illness and allergies, these membranes can go into overdrive, causing that familiar stuffy feeling. In such circumstances, many medical practitioners recommend you avoid foods that cause mucus build-up.

Whooping cough Risk factors - Mayo Clinic  Whooping cough is thought to be on the rise for two main reasons. The whooping cough vaccine you receive as a child eventually wears off. This leaves most teenagers and adults susceptible to the infection during an outbreak — and there continue to be regular outbreaks.In addition, children aren't fully immune to whooping cough until they've received at least three shots, leaving those 6 months and younger at greatest risk of contracting the infection.
