Suggest Treatment For Constant Throat Clearing When Diagnosed With Costochondritis
Hi 40 yr old male. Ex Smoker quit about 18 months ago. Diagnosed with Costochondritis about a week ago. Took my anit-inflamatory meds. Feel pain when I lay down to sleep. My concern is I have a need to clear my throat many times a day and 75% of the time I spit up bloody mucus since I was diagnosed. Is this still normal after 1 week? Thanks
