I have the same problem for about 2 months now. it started off when i had a sore throat but i've had alot worse sore throats before. then i stared spitting up blood in the musus which was streaky, now it seems when i spit it up its just pure vlood. now i went to the emergeny doc and she said it was just my sore throat causing it but that came and went ages ago. and it hapens about 3 times a day when i do it. and now today my throat just feels there is a slight pressure on it that goes down to my chest a bit . so the doc was far wrong and the meds never helped one bit. i dont smoke so i cant find an answer for it. anyone else have a similiar
for about a week now i have been having a sore throat wich turned into difficulty swallowing and then spitting up blood in the mucus. i went to the ER and the said i didnt have strep and gave my darvocet for the pain.. the pain has settled alot but didnt go completely away. i do smoke too... it does seem to be worse when i smoke. i wonder if its just a cut in the back of my throat or something is wrong. now ive been getting bad headaches and i think it might be from the pain killers....help!
Yes I had exact syptoms and I smoke, I had sore throat and congestion. I'd blow my nose an dsee blood streaks but it was common for me to see it in my nose during or after blowing whenever I have a minnor cold or anything but the blood when I spit into the sink was scary and never before unless I bust my lip in my dreams, waking up to a horrible taste in my mouth so bad that I felt compelled to spit and see blood for a good 5 mins every single spit. Then.............nothing???? but i relate to the Amoxicillin, self prescribed because I got hoarse and barly could swallow so I knew I needed meds and in my house theres no such thing as throwing away meds, we can't afford that, so I got my hubby's old half bottle of Amoxicillin and took as prescribed and my symptoms and mucus and congestion problems left and the headaches came! it's the antibiotic that cause the head pains, I just take aleve and amoxicillin or asap (acetaminophen)(tylenol) and I'm healing without the painful side effects, hope this helps, head pains were last congestion and sore throat and then hoarseness then antibiotics then amazing turn around with 6 hrs, I wasn't no longer congested or horse and sore throat was so much better that I didn't need chloraceptic spray anymore then no symptoms other than the ocassional nose blowing and halking up mucus but I figure better out than in (i guess it was its way of working) then the head pains but now im all better, and have 2 more does, hopefully it doesn't return, good luck hope this helped
A few days ago I was vomiting at night but there was no blood in my mucous when I spit until today. It started with a few sneezes and when i blew my nose there was blood(I barely nose bleed). Right after that, when I spit in the sink, there was bright red blood in the mucous. I went online and thought I could have been the possibility of rupturing a blood vessel in my esophagus or digestive system but I'm not sure and very scared. I told my parents about it and going to the doctor later this week, but if anyone can help me I'd really appreciate it.
I am 18, and having dull chest pains slightly to the left of the center of my chest....upon quitting cigs and weed I have been coughing up aliens. although I was first to encouraged to quit weed when I noticed streaks of blood in my sputum along with a brown tar like substance that vary from a light gray at times to an almost black....I have been exposed to asbestos through my line of work about two years ago. I sand and refinish hard wood floors so am also exposed to large amounts of fine saw dust( i quit the job)...worried sick is an understatement...approaching two weeks without cigs and one without weed and the substances in my sputum have deteriorated but only slightly... the chest pain however, is ever constant....I fear the worse knowing it has to be my lungs ...I feel I can only hope for a fungus infection or just bruised bone from contracting muscles do to cough and that my lungs really are just cleaning themselves out rather than cancer. :'(
Strep throat can explain most of the symptoms.
i have the same problem.. except this morning i was rubbing my throat and it felt like somthing popped in my throat (but it did not hurt) so i thought my throat was better and i just happend to pop the pus filled gland. so i bagan spitting up blood for about a minute. it stopped. and throughout the day my sore throat became less sore. so i thought i was fine..and now my throat doesnt hurt at all.but about and our ago right after i ate dinner i went to the bathroom and spit blood and mucus. then a blood clort..(sorry if its gross) so im worried too. and i smoke ciggeretes too i pray its not because of them. but im done with them now. this has me too afraid.
ITS MONO EVERYONE LOOK IT UP
it is not Mono, I have had mono and the symptoms of this do not even compare.
check out oral thrush and see if that explains anything, oral thrush in combination with smoking/drinking or w/e can explain alot of the problems. thrush can also infect the nose/sinus' along with the mouth and throat.
if blood or discolored mucus is coming from your lungs, i would recommend seeing your doc. because these things can be easily fixed or very bad.

I've been looking for an answer to what is happening to me on the internet for a week now and so far nothing but now i see there's more people with the same thing : dry throat, bloody mucus, really sore to swallow food and water , headaches and dizziness.
does anybody know what this is because my GP won't give me an appointment till December ?

alright so i had sore throats before but never one like the one i got sunday, monday morning i was hurting it was hell trying to swallow anything, i went to the docs and they dide a swab test she said it was negative so i didnt have strp throat no bacteria means no antibiotics for me, she said since my lymph nodes were swollen it was viral and it just had to run its course, i went to whole foods because regular meds and lozogens upset my stomach and all natural is better for you any ways, i picked up this stuff the guy there recomended called cold and sinus blaster its a spray and works great 12 bucks well worth it i could breath my throat didnt hurt as much, he also recomended i suck on zinc, zycam is really good get some, he also told me about staying away from sugar he said its the prime of all evil diabetes weight gain, and inflamatory so not good for when you are sick, i have been drinking teas twice a day, drinking water to the point i have to pee every 10 minutes, using the spray and the zycam. just now my throat is feeling more and more healed still hurts just a bit but tolerable, also i just got a humidifier which helps because i was waking up with my throat dry which causes the bleading becuse your throat gets "chapped" just like your lips, from the cold dry air and you bleed a bit, the mucus is there because the antibodies are trying to heal your body, and when they combat the virus they get thick and thats what flegm is when you are at the stage of phlegm drink more water than before so you loosen and thin out the membranes and get better quicker, for head and nasal congestion i use a neti pot, its a bit uncomfortable at 1st but you get used to it got mine at cvs for 10 bucks and it came with the saline solution. hope this helps every one.
i dont smoke but my brother does he smoke mary jane what should i do
