Thanks for this posting I was really worried and have been experiencing this for the past 5 months. How did you overcome it? have you had surgery or is there an easier way

DURATION:
infrequently over the last 2-4 years
SYMPTOM:
coughing/sneezing up small yellow globules of a foul-smelling material.
material is stiff and holds its shape, but can be easily smashed.
sometimes accompanied by sinus pain, but this could be unrelated.
usually accompanied by foul-smelling breath.
NOT SURE if material is coming down out of sinuses and into throat, or if it is coming up out of lungs.
i have attached an image of one of the globules for examination.
has anyone had similar symptoms, and does anyone know what this might be?
i had major cranio-facial surgery that involved work in my sinus area three years ago (Le Fort II) to correct an underbite.
