I've had a sore throat for 2 weeks now and its very painful, im starting cough out blood, what could this be?

Viral illness: More than likely you have a viral illness presenting as a post nasal drip from your sinuses. The drip is giving you a sore throat and blood can be due to irritation.Use salt water nosedrops and vaporizer. Also see your physician to make sure you dont have a strep throat.
