Hi thanks for writing in to hcm.
most probably you are having throat infection which may be bacterial in nature.
kindly consult a physician for antibiotics like:
Tablet amoxycillin 500mg thrice a day for seven days.
Tablet cetrizine 10mg once at night for 7 days.
You can take medicated lozenges to relieve the sore throat.
Gargle your moth thrice daily with povidone iodine mouth solution .
the blood in mucus may be due to constant straining of the nose causing rupture of small capillaries.
Get well soon.
regards,
Dr.Riyanka
