Hi thanks for contacting HCM...
Here you have blood in sputum....
In bronchitis or pneumonia blood can be split in sputum....
Chest x ray done....
If show prominent bronchvadcular vascular marking then bronchitis or viral interstitial pneumonia can be there....
If consolidation seen then lobar pneumonia suspected.....
Take full course of antibiotic...
Straining while coughing avoided.....
If weight loss or anorexia present then tuberculosis can be there......
For that sputum examination needed....
If you are known case of mitral stenosis then also bleed in sputum can occur...
For congestion relief antihistaminic drug can be taken.....
If want to use herb product then one tsp ginger juice with honey useful...it is useful in respi causes....
With keeping this in mind consult physician..
Take care....
