I have a sore throat and while brushing my teeth, I scraped my throat and mucus and blood came out. Is this normal? No other symptoms

Hello,
If it's light red blood and mucus it could be an irritation. Was this the first time it happened? For the moment I would not be alarmed especially if it is a one time event

Yes, there is mucus and a little blood! This was the first time it happened, but I am a person who often has a dry nose and I often have mucus and blood in my nose, when it is dry! I really have a dry throat

So probably it's secondary to the dryness. Make sure you drink plenty of water, you can also take little lozenges to moisturize the throat, I would avoid anything with menthol in it so as not to irritate it further. If it's not already something you have, putting a humidifier in the bedroom might help.
Hopefully this will help,
Marie-Pierre
