What Causes Nose Bleed While Having Chest Infection And Walking Pneumonia?

I went to the doctors and have been sick for little over 3 weeks with different symptoms but now the symptoms were a sore throat, dissiness,fever,chills,and dry cough. The doctor at the hospital said I had walking pneumonia and a chest infection, today as I was sitting my nose started poring out dark red blood for about 15 minutes, would this be linked to my diagnosis or to my medication (Sandoz azithromycin)?

Hello dear Greetings
Regarding your experience symptoms nose bleed cough fever chills sore throat dizziness I am suggesting that you have developed a upper respiratory tract infection with nasal congestion(can cause bleeding)
to rule out hypertensive condition

In view of this please check your blood pressure and do the following test

Chest x-ray to rule out pneumonia
Paranasal x-ray
Complete blood count in case of blood dyscriasia
Renal function test to rule out connective tissue disease

Meanwhile please see an ENT specialist with the results and for expect clinical assessment Councelling and adequate drug prescription

Meanwhile take some analgesic and antibiotic pending your appointment

I hope this helps Regards
