Coughing up red mucus
I've been coughing up red mucus and have a dry cough everyonce in awhile. And it feels like there is mucus in the back of my throat. I don't have any sinus congestion or a fever but my breathing is a bit off like it hurts my throat to breath.

You have post nasal drip.. and might have sinus infection.. blood mixed mucous is due to that..visit an ENT specialist for proper assessment and treatment.
