A member asked:
My throat and ears hurt bad i've coughed up yellow mucus with little blood streaks in it. what could it be?

Mucus/blood streaks: With your other symptoms it is likely part of a cold. The blood may be coming from your nose. If it persists or increases or you are a smoker, be seen. All the best.

Likely : Upper respiratory tract infections commonly caused by viruses. Respiratory distress or dizziness or inability to drink fluids or lethargy are warning signs for immediate medical assistance. Rehydration and symptoms relief treatments are mainstay of therapy. Lack of improvement and worsening of such conditions require evaluation
