WHile singing if I swallow a little saliva, I'm unable to sing, since the mucous makes...

me crack up, but the mucous has never troubled me or anything..its only when I try and reach those notes and sing in tune..that is starts acting up and it is almost impossible not to swallow the saliva when you sing..U have to swallow a little bit if you know hwat I mena
I wish to sing well nothing professional or anything lol ...and I know I can reach those high notes, if I didn't have the mucous thing ,in my throat..
How to get rid of tis problem anyone?

I am a singer, musician, writer and actor.

That mucous thing can sneak up and grab me anytime so I always carry a small bottle of water with me - I will even sneak one on stage if I am in the theatre.

But especially with singing you should avoid dairy products a day before giving your performance and certainly avoid them on the day itself.

Most singers mucous will vary according to the time of day and most that I know will drink water before and during performances - not during the songs but between the songs.

There are some bad things you can do to ruin your voice and increase mucous... like yelling at a soccer match. Also if you tend to choke while eating or drinking the coughing afterwards can damage your voice box for a number of days.

So in short... diet, water and a quiet life is the answer.

boil some water with a ginger on it and add sugar..the drink it up..its good

yeah I agree with"greeneyedangel" and if you don't like ginger you can change it with tilia or green tea it works trust me I sing 2
