Coughing blood, sore throat, head throbbing, nose bleed?
so last night i started to get sick & just assumed it was a cold/sore throat. i took nyquil before going to bed, & this morning after brushing my teeth, i coughed up blood. it was kind of a lot, but it ended up with less & less. my throat started to feel worse afterward, & my head was constantly throbbing. i took tylenol & then i took a shower, & the air was on in my house, so it wasn't hot at all around me. but then my nose started bleeding... i checked my body temp & it's around 99.7° so i don't know what's going on. i don't know if i should go to the doctor since the whole coughing up blood had stopped. help, please?
Are you sure you didn't brush to hard while brushing? It may the blood from your nose it is all connected. If it has stopped I don't believe you have to run to the you ER. Call your doc and explain the problem and make an app.

ME!!!!
I would still go to the doctor because even if the coughing up blood thing has stopped..there is still that possibilty that it wll happen again and coughing up blood isnt good.
I coughed up blood before and i went to the doctor and found out that i had acid reflux.

In an emergency case, your doctor will give you treatments to control your condition. The doctor will then ask you questions about your cough such as:
Type
Are you coughing up large amounts of blood (massive hemoptysis)?
Can you see blood when you cough up something?

Is there blood-streaked mucus (phlegm)?
Time pattern
Did it begin suddenly?
Has it increased recently?
How many weeks has the cough lasted?
Is the cough worse at night?
What other symptoms do you have?
The doctor will do a complete physical exam and check your chest and lungs. Tests that may be done include:
Bronchoscopy
Chest CT scan
Chest x-ray
Coagulation studies, such as PT or PTT
Complete blood count
Lung biopsy
Lung scan
Pulmonary arteriography
Sputum culture and smear
