I've been noticing some small streaks of blood mixed with mucus whenever I suck out the mucus from my nose for the past three weeks, and now my cold has gotten much lighter. Should I be worried about the blood? What might be causing this?

I'm feeling worried because I've been experiencing dizziness when I walk after sitting in a chair for about half an hour. This has been going on for the past year, and I've already consulted a neurologist and even tried some medications, but they haven't really helped much. Some doctors suggested it might be related to an ear problem. Can you please give me some advice on where to seek treatment for this kind of issue? It's starting to make me anxious about going to the office. I'd really appreciate some guidance on this.
