Every day I cough up what looks like a scab with ugly mucous and blood

I use the regular NeilMed salts with the sinus spray bottle with purified water. Pretty inexpensive. Available at Walmart and other places. It does a decent job. My husband uses his twice per day. I use it once.

I have had this issues for years, seen about 10 different ENT, every one said I don’t know what it is.One offered a surgery not being sure if it will help. The last doctor proscribed me a compounding medicine Mometasone +Mupirocin. Two different medications (capsules).I have to use Neilmed bottle, destilled water, adding saline packet, adding both medications and do nasal rinse. My insurance doesn’t cover compounding medications and I pay out of pocket. It is not cheep, cost me $300 a month.But so far I’m using it for a month and haven’t have 1 scab. Before I was having a scab a day. I still have the dry cough what bothering me, but my ENT is sending me to a different doctor to check if I have acid reflux (he said the symptoms of a dry cough sound like I have issues with acid reflux). I never have had issues with heartburn, will see. I have appointment in end of august. Will keep updated.
