Coughing up blood
A few days ago I had a very sore throat that seemed to come out of no where. Which turned into a very dry itchy cough. Only every now and them I feel like I have mucus so when I cough a little bit of mucus and blood comes up and my throat burns for a bit. Did I cut my throat and just not realize it or is it something else?
Sounds pretty serious!! How long has this been happening? I wouldn't worry about it if it has only been a few days, but upwards of a week, I'd go to a doctor - the bronchi are very delicate and can become injured by coughing and hence a little bit of blood - I hope it clears up fast! :)
