Coughing with clear, white mucus that settles after it comes out is often due to airway irritation, allergies, or post-nasal drip, leading to mucus buildup. Drink warm fluids, take steam, and keep your throat moist to help clear the mucus easily. Avoid dust, smoke, and cold air as they can trigger more episodes. If this keeps happening, a doctor can guide appropriate treatment to address the cause and prevent recurrence.
