You seem to be suffering from viral upper respiratory tract infection which is a common type of throat infection in this season. Forceful coughing can sometimes cause rupture of small blood vessels of airway leading to minor bleeding. You may need to take antibiotics, cough syrups and steam inhalation for faster recovery
Next Steps
Consult nearby ENT specialist for confirmation of diagnosis and appropriate treatment if required
