What Causes Faint Sore Throat?

I have had a faint sore throat for about a week. Nothing to severe. Sneezing and some mucus, no coughing. 2 days now I have UN-SEEN hard spots that feel like popcorn kernels low in my throat. To low to see. I sneezed and got some mucus up and tasted blood. I spit up the mucus and saw blood mixed with it and the hard spots seemed higher in my throat and then went back down. After thinking about it I realized I ve been having off and on faint sore throats and a faint taste of blood for a while now. I usually have some mild sinus issues so I didn t think much of it til now. Thanks, Joel
