From the past 3-4 days I am suffering from cough. It started after I got cold and flu. Cold and fever is gone and cough started. From yesterday, I am coughing up small traces of blood in my phelgam. I am drinking only hot water and green tea on regular basis. Moreover I am taking a homeopathic medicine for cough i. E. Justin cough syrup. I am coughing more and more phelgam every minute. And some phlegm comes with small traces of blood. Is there anything serious and should I undergone any tests and consult a doctor?
