I'm a 26-year-old and generally in good health, but I've been experiencing blood streaks in my sputum every morning for the past 5 years, especially during the winter or when I catch a cold. I've seen an ENT specialist who mentioned DNS, but I noticed I'm not breathing through my mouth. My X-ray came back normal, and besides a dry and sore throat on those days, there are no other symptoms. What should I be doing about this?

Consult a pulmonologist for a thorough evaluation, including a high-resolution CT scan, bronchoscopy, or pulmonary function tests, to rule out underlying conditions

I'm a bit worried because I've had a bad cold for several days, but now my sore throat has gotten really bothersome. It started out like a regular sore throat, but then two days ago I woke up and spat out mucus that had half mucus and half blood in it, which freaked me out a bit. I remember having a tough crusted pizza before it started, thinking maybe that had something to do with it. Now today, I've been spitting up a lot of mucus and noticed tiny amounts of blood too. Should I be concerned about this?

I'm feeling really anxious because I went to the dentist for an emergency treatment today and now I've suddenly got this urge to cough. It feels like there's something stuck in my throat. Could this possibly be related to COVID? The dentist was super careful and followed all the protocols like wearing a face shield, sanitizing everything, using air purifiers, and taking my temperature. He even mentioned he hasnt seen any other patients in a month. Despite all this, I'm still worried. What should I do about these symptoms I'm experiencing?

Patient is advised tab augmentin 625 mg ,orally, thrice daily for 7 days, tab levocetrizine 10 mg bedtime for 5 days and syrup salbutamol 10 ml thrice dailly for 7 days .
