A doctor has provided 1 answer

Viral URI: A viral upper respiratory tract infection is likely and these usually resolve after a week or so. Treatment consists of resting and, drinking adequate fluids. Warm salt water gargles or suck on lozenges to sooth canker sores. The blood is from congestion of membranes in back of nasal passages.
