@anokasion you could have had a bloody nose or something, that's happened to me before where it feels like mucus but then it's just a lot of blood. It might just be really dry. I hope you're drinking a lot of water all the time, and maybe try putting on a humidifier or rubbing some Vaseline in your nose. If I'm understanding your post right, at least...
@anokasion yeah definitely drink lots of water! It works wonders. I get really dried out overnight so I always keep water next to my bed that I can drink first thing in the morning. Orange juice is good for the vitamin c but it's really high in sugar and that will mix with the mucus to make it thicker and cause more mucus, so you should be drinking a lot of water to go with it so you can thin the mucus out too. If you're only drinking it for the vitamin c then it is better to get actual vitamins and just drink water instead.
I also hate the feeling of Vaseline in my nose lol. I usually just put some cold water in there before leaving home to help it out a little bit. A humidifier would work well too but I don't have one ever since my last one broke.
> it feels like mucus but then it's just a lot of blood
exactly. I got used in the mornings when I wake up to throw a lot of mucus via the nose and the mouth, but this morning was the first that the first 10 minutes of "throwing up" was blood, red blood without mucus -until it stopped coming out blood for mucus as usual.

It makes a lot of sense, since this happens only when I wake up... but never was pure blood. Honestly I am not drinking a lot of water, mostly tea, coffee, and orange juice. Some 7up too. I'm gonna try to change that starting today.
Because here is Winter and the temperature it's beginning to get cold, you don't get thirsty easily.
About the Vaseline, I can endure the pain on the nose, it's the "having something inside while breathing" that makes me really bad, sometimes I can't think of anything else because of the vibration. In 25 years at least (I am older than 25), I never had any problem related to breathing, too.
Thanks for your help.
