minor stomach pain and coughing up phlegm Posted: 02-09-08 00:37am
For a week I've experienced a minor pain
in my stomach. Normally it wouldn't bother
me, but it's consistent. It started when I
was sick, I became ill with a sore throat,
cough, your basic cold symptoms. Those are
fading pretty quick, but this is here when
I wake, when I fall asleep, all in
between.
Every half hour or so, I get this
overwhelming feeling, it rises from my
stomach to my throat, I have to go into
the bathroom and cough(not puke) up
phlegm. Sometimes it comes, sometimes it
doesn't. When it does, it's usually thick,
it looks dry, and the last three times it
came up there were minor traces of blood.
I'm just wondering what that could be?
It's not incredibly painful, it's just an
annoying pain that makes it hard to
concentrate, and obviously, coughing
things up regularly isn't something I can
continue doing, either. I've searched all
over the internet and can't find what it
could be.
The location of my pain is below my chest,
almost on both sides of my belly button.
