Ok drs

I have been miserably coughing, fever,and sore throat since Saturday. Yesterday the achiness started and coughing up blood ( just tints of blood) and my ear started hurting so bad. I'm taking Tylenol for the fever and aches . Went to the dr and the nurse practitioner said it was an ear infection. Does achiness come with an ear infection? I've never had this before and the coughing. It's weird please help. Only serious help please no rude comments please

I have to agree with WebMD on this one. Anytime you cough up blood its serious. Call a doctor and tell them that you have that symptom. They should see you immediately.

[quote]Coughing up blood (hemoptysis) can be a sign of a serious medical condition. Infections, cancer, and problems in blood vessels or in the lungs themselves can be responsible. Coughing up blood generally, requires medical evaluation unless the hemoptysis is due to bronchitis.[/quote]
