Frequent Cold, Flu, Chest Infection, Blood Stains On Coughing Or Blowing The Nose, Advised Flu Jab. Effective?

hello for the past few years i have been getting constant colds and flu throughout the year and it feels like a chest infection all the time. I have been to my g.p several times but he said its nothing and just gives me a prescription which is not very helpful. He also suggested i should get a flu jab, how is that going to solve the matter? I am very concerned because sometimes when i cough or blow my nose i get blood stains what does that mean?

Hi. Blood on coughing blowing nose is due to infection . You should go for CT Scan of sinuses as there can be a hidden infection causing all the problems you are suffering from. Avoid the things like food, atmosphere or anything which increases your problems.
