What Causes Sore Throat , Nausea And Fever?

Hi, I am a 25 year old male, living in Vail, Colorado. Last night I was feeling a bit feverish, so I went to bed early. When I woke, my throat felt sore and flemmy and I was feeling nauseous. I thought I was going to vomit so I went to the toilet and instead, I coughed up about a teaspoons worth of flemmy blood. What should I do

Hello,

coughing up blood always needs investigation. Fever signifies an infection. Serious conditions like pneumonia have to be excluded with clinical examination and chest X-ray. Sometimes the blood originates from the upper respiratory system (from the nose for example after forceful expiratory movements to clear the nostrils from mucus). Clinical examination may reveal clues to its origin.

I hope I've helped!
