I recently had a cold i'm just starting to get over. when i blow my nose i notice blood in my mucus, should i be worried?

Don't worry try Neti: But do watch for changes. It's probably surface capillaries the have been quite irritated and have broken. It should improve as you recover and you may want to use a neti pot saline wash instead of blowing. If it stays or gets worse - see your doctor. But it should heal up. Best!
