How to treat a cold and cough for ten days

Patient's question:

Ten days ago, I had a cold and coughed. Now the cough is not very noticeable. Four days ago in the morning, I started coughing up blood, but it never happens during the day, and it's not very noticeable at night. I've been taking medicine for a few days.

Doctor's answer:

Reappearance of cough with blood in sputum, likely due to capillary rupture in the throat during coughing. It is recommended to use herbs that clear the lungs and cool the blood, along with Cefixime capsules and Pu'di Lan anti-inflammatory tablets. Pay close attention and monitor the situation. If the bleeding increases or the coughing up of blood persists, it is necessary to seek further medical examination, such as a chest X-ray, to identify the cause as soon as possible and effectively address the problem.
