NO. Green mucus does not mean that an illness is serious or that a child needs antibiotics. Throughout the illness, the mucus will change color. At first it will become transparent, but as the days go by, the cells in charge of defending us, called neutrophils, will produce an enzyme called peroxidase, which is responsible for leaving the green color in the mucus. Therefore, mucus is a protective system of the body and does not indicate that a disease has become bacterial. Remember that more than 80% of respiratory diseases are caused by viruses, so antibiotics do not kill viruses. 👉Remember that an evaluation by a professional is very important.
