sputum[phlegm]and blood.
i have a question please.since 5 days ago i`ve noticed that every morning i got in my throat sputum[phlegm]blood.in the beginning [the first day]it was just a little amount of blood .in this morning the phlegm was looking like a blood clot [the size of 25 cents].i mention that i do not caugh[fever,cold or flu] and i had an x-rays exam [lungs]3 weeks ago .my lungs were ok the doc said.i wonder what can cause this blood in the phlegm and what other medical exams are necessary to find out what the problem is?ps.i forget to mention that last week during my bowel program [supository and digital stimulation i had a strange sensation ....i became deaf for about one minute and i asked my sister to stop the digital stim. i also have a strange noise in my right ear ...like a whistle [fife]tzzzzzzzzzzzz.......was a severe AD ?I did not verify my blood pressure after this incident right away. [i did not wanted to scare my family at 2am]...my bp is 109/77 pulse 110.[today].
thank you for any advice.

The blood in the phlegm can be from many things- even though you do not cough, does anyne do an assistive cough with you? Aggressive coughing can cause it. Irritation of the trachea can also cause it. Bronchitis and pneumonia are also contributors. You need to get checked out.

The strange noise that you heard could be AD although I am not sure. It seems as though your BP is ok today and while your pulse is a little fast, it really depends on what is your normal.

It's hard to be more specific so I apologize. My best advice is that if any of the sensations that you describe happen again, please get your BP and pulse taken right away. The blood in your phlegm neds to be checked out- there are too many different things that could cause it.
