Why is there blood in my mucus?

Good day doc, I noticed some traces of blood in my mucur. What could be the possible cause and solution

1 Answer

Answered on 18th Sept '24

When you find some blood in mucus, it can indicate several ailments. Possible reasons could be a nosebleed, irritation by dry air, or an infection such as sinusitis. If you are facing a runny nose, pain in your face, or a sore throat, that could be a sign of an infection. Drinking a lot of water, using a humidifier, and visiting a doctor if it persists are the ways to go.

I have done health checkup for blood test ..need to know if everything is normal ..I feel fatigue sometimes

Male | 42

Looking tired sometimes can have so many different explanations. The results of your blood screening can show some hints. In case your iron level turns out to be low, your body will be susceptible to fatigue. Having a diet rich in spinach and beans can help increase your iron level. Deficiency of sleep can be a reason for tiredness, too. Regularize the habit of going to bed early and having quality sleep. If the blood test results show any problems, your doctor can find you the appropriate remedy.

Sir blood 8.7 tha report m maine dava bi li h but Mera fever nhi utar rha 1month se jyada ho gya

Female | 26

At 8.7, having a low blood level can cause you to become tired and weak. Your body might not have enough iron, which is necessary for feeling better. To increase your blood level take iron supplements and eat foods such as spinach and beans that are rich in iron. Also if your fever does not go away it would be good to see a healthcare provider who will help establish what is causing the fever so that you can receive appropriate treatment.

hi Dr,I went for a blood test some time before and some of my tests came out high.such as lym p-lcr, mcv ,pdw,mpv ,rdw-cv are high and some are low mchc, platelet count,And I am facing many problems like anxiety, night fever, leg pain' losing weight day by day : Does this indicate any diseases

Male | 20

Your blood test results have come back as abnormal. Generally, high levels of lym p-lc, MCV, PDW, mpv, and rdw-cv, in the case of low MHC and platelet count, can indicate various conditions. Your symptoms of anxiety, night fever, leg pain, and weight loss are bothersome. These abnormal results and symptoms may be linked to health issues such as anemia, infections, or inflammatory conditions. A doctor's follow-up is necessary for detailed diagnosis and treatment of the problem.

Systematic increases in immature granulocytes Good morning, Firstly, I will mention that I suffer from numerous chronic inflammatory diseases, as this may be relevant. These include Ulcerative Proctitis; Atrophic Gastritis; Last year, I also underwent two cervical electrosurgery procedures due to advanced dysplasia (CIN3). (The last colposcopy and colonoscopy did not reveal any suspicious changes) For a year now, my blood morphology tests have been showing an elevated level of immature granulocytes: The latest test (May '24) showed: Immature granulocytes IG - 0.09 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 1.00; Norm: 0-0.5% The rest of the blood morphology is normal, leukocytes in urine - within the norm. Previous results (April '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.05 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.7; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV) Even older (January '23): Immature granulocytes IG - 0.04 thousand/µl; Norm: 0-0.04 thousand/µl Immature granulocytes IG % - 0.6; Norm: 0-0.5% (and a very slightly elevated MCV and basophils) There is a clear upward trend since last year. I initially thought this was due to extreme stress (CIN3, LLETZ etc). Now I am not so sure... Are these results very concerning and indicative of a cancerous process? Can chronic inflammatory states cause an increase in IG, or is it rather some kind of “acute” disease state? Could the fact that I rode a bike to the laboratory (medium and short-term physical effort) affect the increase in results? I would be very grateful for your response and advice. Best regards, J.

Female | 40

Raised levels of these are often linked to chronic inflammation similar to stress, in this case, it is important to control them initially. With the status of attempted diagnosis for specific inflammatory conditions, your previous experience, and the new procedures on the lookout for anything new, don't hesitate to let a doctor know. It would be helpful to get solid advice from your healthcare provider concerning your test results.

Hello, Doctor. I hope you're doing well. I recently had the opportunity to review my aunt's blood test results, and I was concerned to see that her neutrophil count is extremely high. Could you please explain what this might mean? Is it possible that she has an infection or a chronic disorder such as rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease? Alternatively, could it be indicative of a more serious condition like cancer? Or perhaps it's related to a side effect of some medication she's taking? I would greatly appreciate your insight into this matter.

Female | 45

A high neutrophil count can indicate inflammation or infection in the body and may be linked to conditions like rheumatoid arthritis or inflammatory bowel disease. Certain medications can also cause an increase. If your aunt has symptoms like fever, fatigue, or pain, it's important to consult a doctor for proper diagnosis and treatment.

38 year old male blood test result: high mchc and lymphocytes, low hematocrit and neutrophils. Low vitamin d. Patients brother had aml. Are these test results concerning? Should we do further testing? The reason for the blood test was bone pain on different parts on the body. Lymphocyes 52% Mchc 37 Neutrophils 38% Hematocrit 38.9% Vit d 16

Male | 38

The increase of MCHC and lymphocytes along with the fall of hematocrit and neutrophils is a sign of some serious issues beneath. Bone pain can also be related to abnormal Vitamin D levels. Taking into consideration the family's background of AML, a decision for additional tests would be a good one to make the doubts clear.

Hello I’ve been taking 25 mg atenolol for the last few months for a fast heart rate. I currently have a hemorrhoid and I want to use preparation H to relieve it. Preparation H has 0.25% of phenyleprine in it I know that can raise blood pressure. Should I still take or is there an alternative I can try?

Female | 22

Phenylephrine can raise your blood pressure and it might be unsafe for the heart if one is on atenolol already. In case you have no idea, you can use other treatments for piles that lack this drug like say witch hazel pads alternatively try out nonprescription hydrocortisone creams too. With these substitutes in mind, there won’t be any need to worry about a thing because they will still help soothe them but without affecting or changing anything about how well the medicine works for your heart condition. Nevertheless, should there still be no relief from piles after using these methods then I would advise that you talk with a healthcare professional.

I am loosing weight continuously and getting slim like anaemia patients skin is so dull and sagging and I feel dizzy sometimes, get tired easily can't sit longer because my blood cells stops working so I have to move every moment

Female | 23

Anemia results from a deficient number of healthy red blood cells in the bloodstream. Low red blood cells mean asthma, dizziness, and quick weight loss. Your skin can also become pale and saggy. More spreadsheets with foods high in iron such as spinach and beans are advisable. Your doctor can also give you iron pills to increase the number of red blood cells.

What is the treatment for glomus tumor??

Female | 44

A glomus tumor is a small, usually non-dangerous growth that causes discomfort and sensitivity, often in the fingers. These abnormal masses develop from cells growing excessively in the glomus body, a tiny structure that helps regulate body temperature. Treatment typically involves surgically removing the tumor, which should relieve symptoms and prevent them from returning.

One person has a cut on his hand . It was bleeding. I ate food from his hand. If that person is hiv positive. Does it transfer to me??

Female | 48

HIV is primarily transferred through some body fluids like blood. If someone with a cut on their hand eats saliva-containing food, the saliva does not carry enough virus to infect you. Being cautious will make sure to see out for symptoms include flu-like illness and talk to your doctor if you are concerned.

I am 20F. Since May, I started a new job in May (retail part time as a student). I've been having nosebleeds since then. During summer it was worse when i was working many many hrs, where it happened alongside dizziness and headaches. Its recently happening again on and off since May- sometimes due to stress and dehydration , dust, allergies and the flu (dont know exact cause). It always come from one nostril.

Female | 20

Noseblee­ds happen, especially with stre­ss, lack of fluids, or breathing in dust and allergens. One­ nostril bleeding is usually no biggie. Try drinking more­ water, avoiding dusty spaces, and using a humidifier. But if it won't quit, be­st to have a doctor check it.

A rapid drop in bhCG levels, from 389 to 280 in just two days, can be concerning. It might indicate cramping, bleeding, or even a miscarriage. However, don't panic yet—additional tests are needed. Keep your doctor informed about any new symptoms, and they will guide you on the appropriate monitoring and next steps.

Female | 20

You might have been affected by an infection with a virus that has in turn caused a blood infection which in turn may cause joint pains in your legs. Antibiotics can disrupt the equilibrium of our body's good bacteria, causing joint pain. For relief of the joint pains, you can try gently exercising, using heat or ice treatment, and taking a break. Stay well-hydrated and eat fresh and good foods to provide adequate support to your body during the healing process.

I'm 21 years old women I've a question today i had a CBC 1 blood test and 3 days back i smoked cigarette will my doctor be able to make out by seeing my blood reports that i smoked ?

Female | 21

Cigarette smoking tends to impact the results of CBC blood tests but they don’t directly reveal it. By increasing your white blood cell count, smoking may indicate signs of inflammation or an infection to a physician. Tell truthfully about your smoking habits when asked by healthcare practitioners so that they can provide appropriate treatment for you.

Female | 16

Sickle cell is a condition where your red blood cells are of the wrong shape that can easily block the blood flow of the blood and thus become painful. This phenomenon occurs in every part of the body. It can lead to fatigue as well. To heal, you are recommended to take warm baths, drink water, and rest. You should also talk to your doctor for more help.
