Doctor said there is throat infection and something with the ulcer. After 2 days taking medicine prescribe, suddenly my sputum got blood.. Is it because of the ulcer or other problem? thank you
Ulcers may cause blood in sputum. Other possibilities like gingivitis or pharyngitis or lower respiratory tract infection etc. Use rexidine mouth wash two teaspoons in half glass of water for gargling. Use tablet.paracetamol in case of fever thrice a day for five days. Drink hot water only. If symptoms not improved please consult with your physician / ENT specialist he will examine and treat you accordingly.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
