Pulmonologist,  's  Response
I need to ask few things.. colored means which color. Is it yellow (seen in infection), is it red(it is haemoptysis), is it green (seen in fungal infection).other thing about your habit. Are you smoker. Than chances of lower respiratory tract infection is more. So consult yor pulmonologist for this.
