Severe cold and blood in sputum
I have been sick for the past 2 weeks and have had a fever, cold and persistent cough (from which i was getting better). This week i caught a cold again but this time my sputum has blood in the morning but during the rest of the day it's fine. Could this be because of an infection or my bronchitis is flaring up?
