What Causes Coughing Up Of Bloody Phlegm?

I went to walk in Monday with what I thought was respiratory infection and was diagnosed with flu and does not feel like flu. Bronchial feel of burning. Chasing fever with Advil and Tylenol. Coughing yellow sometimes with blood. Should I go for another visit. Do you think I require Antibiotics ?

Hello,

You should visit your doctor again. You need to take antibiotics. Your mentioned symptoms are most likely due to bacterial infection. I would suggest antibiotics like Co-amoxiclav.


Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
