You seem to be suffering from viral upper respiratory tract infection which is a common type of throat and nose infection in this season. You may need to take antibiotics, anti cold medicines and decongestant nasal drops for few days for faster recovery. Steam inhalation is also beneficial. Violent coughing can cause injuries to small blood vessels inside your throat causing bleeding
Next Steps
Consult nearby physician for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
