Specializes in Family Medicine

Nasal Discharge: With the limited history provided, my conjecture is that it might be due to recurrent nasal bleeding. If this nasal discharge has been present for 5-7 days, it is time for an exam by your internal medicine physician, with possible referral to the local Ear, Nose, and Throat specialist.

A member asked:

For a little over a week my nose has been stuffed up, and whenever I blow my nose to clear it up, it's a mixture of blood and mucus. This is only happening in one nostril. Is this a nasal inflammation or something else?
