Thank you.

Hi,
As you had your MRI done and was normal, you don't need to worry about brain. Regarding the headache, it might be the any of the following like migraine, cluster headache, stress induced headache, or headache due to nasal spur. That bloody mucoid discharge from throat may be due to chronic cough, severe throat irritation as in pharyngitis, pulmonary tuberculosis, or any chemical or irritant ingestion.
You can consult an otorhinolaryngologist or ENT surgeon in this regard. As your brain is normal, an ENT specialist may examine the details of throat and nose and ear thoroughly and give you the result.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
