What Causes Blood In The Phlegm Upon Coughing Only In The Morning?
Hello. I m a mom of 3. My only son aged 15, wakes up in the morning and coughs. When he did that, there s no phlegm but only saliva with a tinge of blood. It has been like that for 2 mornings already. When he coughs during the day, there s no blood. Only upon waking up in the morning. Is something wrong with him?

Hi,
from history it seems that he might be having acute upper respiratory tract infection and having congestion in throat.
During night time some blood form congested throat is collected and in the morning he might have tinge of blood in coughing.
consult your doctor and get examined.
He might require one antibiotic, anti-inflammatory me3dicine course.
Avoid giving cold drinks and junk food.
Ok aqnd take care.
