Why am I coughing up mucus with blood?
You might have experienced some blood along with mucus. Quite often, after a cough, the throat gets irritated and blood vessels break, which makes the throat bloody. The blood is on the outside of the body but has no serious health implications. If you are frequently experiencing it, or you are having such problems as weakness, dizziness, or chest pain, consult a pulmonologist if it is for your peace of mind.

Can my fever and cough be from rain squinting?
Fever and cough are typically part of the body's natural defense against infection. When you get wet in the rain, your body gets cold, which makes it a lot easier to catch a cold. Keep it warm, drink a lot of fluids, get some rest, and you can also take some over-the-counter fever medicine if you like. If your symptoms become more severe or worsen, visit a doctor.
