Hi

Blood in the sputum is a common event in many mild respiratory conditions, including upper respiratory infections, bronchitis, and asthma.Although the blood can be worrying, it is usually not a cause for concern, especially in young or otherwise healthy people.I suggest antibiotics for 3 to 5 days for the infection to control.Salt water gargle can be done.Avoid violently blowing the nose or coughing.

Hope that was helpful.Let me know if i can assist you further.
