I have a 12 year old son who had a nose bleed a couple of days ago but now he,s spitting up blood with his mucus. He lost his voice or i should say very horse. His throat hurts only a little bit, on a scale from 1 to 10 it,s a 2. He has no headackes and no temperture and feels pretty good otherwise. Do you think he needs antibiotics?
Hello don't thin there's an indication for antibiotics at this point but if he has blood in his mucus he may still be having a posterior nosebleed and for that reason he needs to have a doctor check this out. Laryngitis--the hoarseness--is generally a viral condition and doesn't require antibiotics
