I've been gargling with salt water and noticed these tiny bright red blood strips in my saliva. I've had acid reflux symptoms recently, but those seem to have cleared up. I'm not having any trouble swallowing, no fever, and my voice hasn't changed. The blood stains are really just tiny and only show up when I gargle. Should I be worried about this?

Isolated incidence is no issue, may be it was due to forceful throat clearing.

View allI'm experiencing a sore throat, and sometimes I'm noticing mucus with a bit of blood coming from my mouth. Could you help me understand what's going on and what remedies I might try? I'm a bit concerned about it.
Blood in sputum during a sore throat can be due to ruptured blood vessels because of inflammation and congestion in the throat. It is harmless in minor quantities. If symptoms such as high fever or chills begin to develop with associated breathing difficultes, a more detailed examination may be warranted through an in person physician consult.

I've been waking up with a dry and sore soft palate every morning for over a year now, especially on colder days. It also tends to get sore and dries out when I'm breathing through my nose without swallowing during the day. I notice I feel a bit feverish when it gets dry and sore, although that fades after I swallow. I've been using Nasivin nasal drops for over a year, which is when these issues began. Could there be a connection? What might be causing this, and what should I do about it?
That could be because of Dryness stay hydrated and take sips water during night also this would help you.
