A member asked:
Why wanna i cough up the mucus it's blood in it...i do have a cold?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Go to doctor: The blood could be from the back of the nose or the throat from small surface blood vessels that pop from the drying effect of the mucous but since i can't examine you, it is best to see your health practitioner to examine you and give you more peace of mind. More exams may be needed which can't be done here.
