    I have found that OJ works miracles, lol! It'll boost ur own immune system and maybe u can kick that on ur own. Just keep hacking it up and get that outa there, does anything else hurt besides ur ear and throat?

    Do not take mucinex. If u have been coughing a lot the blood vessels in ur throat are raw and bleeding a little. The blood should be bright red. This is normal. If its more dark with heartburn or upset stomach it could be an ulcer. If its a lot of blood u should get it looked at at the hosp for a possible pneumothorax, which is where air leaks into ur body from ur lung. And finally....pneumonia will cause u to cough up blood. If other stuff ur coughing up is greenish with a bad smell its probably pneumonia. Do not take musicnex. It works great for nasal congestion but all that stuff u blow out goes to ur lungs and causes bronchitis or pneumonia.
