It makes more and more. Drink a lot of fluids and avoid too much dairy products as that tends to thicken it in many people.
If there is COLOUR in your mucus, if it is green or yellow or brown or even bloody, go to your doctor. Those are not good indicators.
Now for a little education on mucus. LOL!
Learn more about mucus, the various colors and the effects it has on your sinus and throat condition. You can also find out which remedy is best for you, by the color of your mucus.
Mucus is a thick gelatinous fluid secreted or produced by various mucus cells that line the intestines, the nose, urinary and reproductive cells and other body organs. Mucus is made up of water, salts, glycoprotein (mucin) and other small cells.
Go to this amazing site, SINUS WARS and you will get all the information you need.

The body will continue to make mucus as long as the white blood cells fight infection in the body or there is an irritant in the airway.
The best way to deal with mucus is to drink a lot of water/juice and get an over the counter cold medicine with an expectorant in it.

Your body makes more - Otherwise, you dry-out and die...
One important function of the stuff is to control moisture as a permeable barrier
PS Mucus is also 'what' divides plant from animal; IF you aint got spit, you aint got ****
