Blood with mucus comes due to friction when you sneeze out roughly

You should not worry about it , unless significant amount of blood comes from your nose.Its common when you get upper respiratory tract infection . Small amount of blood mixed with mucus is due to superficial erosion of nasal mucosa covering as a result of dryness, especially in the morning.
Next Steps
Drink lots of water
you can apply petroleum jelly or antihistamine nasal gel to prevent dryness

Dear for fever and running nose antibiotics are not the first choice please avoid self medication u could have simply taken antihistaminics( citrizine 10mg) and paracetamol bd/tid ..As far as blood in nasal discharge is concerned ,Excessive nose picking can cause damage to the lining so no need to worry about that
