Avatar n tn And the next day, I started coughing up small amounts of blood, sometimes combined with mucus, sometimes just blood clots, the blood seemed dark, not pink, and I didn't cough blood all the time, I would cough some blood, then it stopped, and maybe much later that day, or the next day, some more blood..

Avatar f tn Only every now and them I feel like I have mucus so when I cough a little bit of mucus and blood comes up and my throat burns for a bit. Did I cut my throat and just not realize it or is it something else?
Avatar n tn For the past 4 years I have been coughing up clear jelly like Mucus Balls. I have been a smoker for 8 years, and I have Asthma. I wake up in the morning and in the middle of the night coughing up a lot of the little mucus balls. It happens a little bit through out the day. Sometimes they are balls and sometimes they are like a hair, but made of mucus. I am very scared and do not have health insurance. I am 25, and thought I was pretty healthy. Please someone, HELP!

Avatar f tn I also have been coughing up some blood through mucus occasionally. You are probably right about it being an infection. I will definitely see a doctor in two days as I am 14 and my parents are working tomorrow. Also I am willing to try the steam inhalation. However if you think it is more urgent feel free to let me know. My symptoms have gotten worse and it is getting harder to breathe. Thank you for all your help.
Avatar f tn on a morning when i wake up i always need to cough and clear my throat since about a year ago. but now it has extended to needing to do it throughout the day. sometime the mucus that comes up is small hard sticky lumps that nearly make me be sick as they get stuck in my throat. or some times theres a lot of yellow and white flem. its never clear. I'm wondering wat the cause of this is as i can constantly feel it there at back of my throat like a coating.
Avatar f tn You can lose chunks or pieces of your mucus plug at a time and some women lose it all at once and some may not lose it at all.
7558356 tn?1410715309 Been loosing chunks of mucus plug for days now. Big giant chunks of mucus plug about 3-6 times a day! I didn't think anyone could have this much mucus plug in them? Sound normal to mommies who have already lost theirs!?
Avatar f tn I was diagnosed with lupus in 1997, which has since been in remission. I have always had extreme sensitivity to dust, smoke, smog, strong smells etc., etc, wherein particles seemed to get into my throat and mucus builds up in throat and I cough for I seem to be about to choke. Recently, I ingested a piece of plastic and subsequently, bronchoscopy was done, and findings were normal, the plastic wasn't in my lungs.
Avatar n tn Barbara533 Have you tried an antihistamine? rushtyyyyy green and yellow flem should not be coming up from allergy unless it is stomach acid. Usually allergy is clear mucus. I'm not a doctor but I wonder if it is a bacteria infection. Sorry I don't know the correct answer. Maybe the doctors are correct too. I just personally haven't heard of colored mucus from allergy. Allergy can cause mucus that can lead to bacteria infection too. See another doctor.
Avatar f tn I can deal with the wheezing, but 3 times now over the past 2 months I’ve started coughing hard and pulled up a thick, brown worm/slug like hard mucus that’s about 1.5 inches long and fairly thick. Directly after, I end up coughing up a small amount of orangish “regular” mucus. Otherwise, I haven’t coughed anything else up at all. Anyone know what this is? I can’t find anything online.
Avatar m tn So today I had my 36 week check up. And I had my pelvic exam and my OBGYN said I am 1cm dilated. When he put his fingers in me it was very uncomfortable. Now it's 5 hours later and I am bleeding/or was bleeding (Brownish Red Color). I am not sure if it's my mucus plug because it doesn't look very mucusy. Just brownish redish chunks but I keep wiping and it keeps coming out. I am not in any pain.
2075737 tn?1379447682 Okay so I'm 19 weeks tomorrow. I've had a bad cold for the past 4 or 5 days, sneezing, runny nose, coughing. So I started taking Robitussin DM since the pharmacist said that's the only thing safe during pregnancy. It seems like my cough has gotten worse ever since I started taking it (its supposed to help loosen the mucus so I'll have a more productive cough) but nothing is coming up still.
Avatar n tn I didn't lose my mucus plug until labor, and mine came out in chunks. I was loosing it for about 5 hours of my labor, when I went to the bathroom, I would see red snot type chunks on the toliet paper everytime I wiped. It was bigger than I thought it would be too. It's not a small piece, it will be big when it comes out because it seals the baby in from the outside.
Avatar f tn So I had my membrane stripped Wednesday and I lost mucus that day and also had a little spotting with some contractions. Yesterday morning I lost a huge thing of bloody mucus onto my pad and it was all blood not just tinged. Well all day yesterday everytine I go to the bathroom I have mucus coming onto the toilet paper and lots of it like huge chunks and again this morning I've had huge chunks come out everytime I pee.
10057721 tn?1408672408 Does it look like a snot with some pink in it? Can it come out in chunks?( cause two chunks that looked the same came out today). Just needing some opinions. I'm not a first time mom. I just don't really remember plus it's twins this time. Lol....
665006 tn?1285175399 I lost mine in chunks as well. And it can rebuild itself (hence why going into labor can take so long).
