GOOD POINT. Mucositis is not the copious mucous gagging problem that we all have as well. If there is any doubt in anyones minds, mucositis refers to the actual sores that develop in your mouth, not all the crud that is constantly draining and clogging up things that is a result of the sinus irritation from the treatments. One is a pain in the ass, the other requires real pain management.

We will start another treatment complication page on excess mucous production which is NOT mucositis.
