Had A Concussion After Hitting Head. Why Did I Cough Up Mucus With Blood?
I had a concussion yesterday. Hit the back of my head and it bled. This happened last night. Today about an hour or two ago I started coughing up mucus with blood . Is it related? I did have a respiratory infection a week or so ago and it had largely subsided but there was is still occasional mucus... no blood though until today.
I went through the history you have posted. It seems your son had a concussionhead injury. Coughing with mucus mixed blood indicates some amount of post nasal bleeding during the head injury. Hence you need to consult your ENT doctor for evaluation and treatment accordingly.
Do write back to me for further questions.
