Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
It seems to be a bronchitis. Sometimes bleeding does occur. As it is a single episode, you need not bother about it. Get treated for cold and take a course of antibiotics. If recurrent episodes seen, visit a doctor. You may need sputum examination too.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
