colds and extra mucus in the lungs

I haven't gone swimming in a long time -- but I do know that chlorine, bleach, and house hold products in general, irritate the crap out of my lungs and I can kind of feel like a layer of mucus just building up in some sort of responce. Either protective or defensive, I notice it. When I did swim, my skin would get really icky just after I got out of the pool and drying off, and I had to wash my face multiple times to get that feel and smell away from my nostrils. All of this to say, no, you aren't the only one <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
