When i blow my nose, a thick blood like mucus comes out?

I can't breathe through my nose currently, as it's all blocked. I can temporary unblock it by blowing my nose, but two minutes later, it's blocked again. I don't know why this is, but each time i've been blowing my nose, a thick blood streaky mucus appears on the tissue, and it's really thick. There was quite a bit of blood in it earlier, and it actually worried me. Not to be gross, but i've got tonsillitis already and i've been on penicillin for the past week. Why is this happening?

I thought this question might fit into the Respiratory Diseases Category, as well as Infectious Diseases.

    When you blow your nose too much it can cause blood vessels to pop and the blood will mix with the mucus causing it to be extremely thick and disgusting. This is probably the work of allergies. If this gets any worse go to the doc right away because it can be a very bad sinus infection too and you are just making it get more infected with all the blood. Don't be alarmed if you get bad sinus pressure or a headache.

    Your nose is just blocked up and blowing it is probably just rupturing blood vessels in your nose, causing the blood. Might want to double check with a doctor though.

    Go see a doctor and its probably a sinus infection or however you spell it. Theres this thing called NeilMed Sinus Rinse you could probably get it at Walgreens or C.V.S you put this packet in it then you put hot water and you mix it then you put this thing in your nose and you squeeze it then you suck it in then you sneeze it out. Its like supposed to help it go away it helps me. You should ask your doctor about it

    when you blow your nose a lot, blood vessels can pop (for lack of better word) from all the pressure. it's nothing bad, but if you're worried, call your doctor.

    If you're blowing too hard it's a vessel like they said but other than that it's usually a sign of you getting better
