If you've been coughing a lot and there are thin streaks of blood in your phlegm, that probably means you've ruptured capillaries by coughing so much. It's not a big deal. But if you have a lot of blood (as much blood as you have phlegm) you may have pneumonia or tuberculosis, and you need to see a doctor right away. If there's a lot of burning in your chest, if you find it very difficult to breathe, if you have a "wet" cough (sounds like there's fluid in your lungs) go see the doctor.

Do bones regulate body temperature?

Bones do not directly regulate body temperature. Body temperature is primarily controlled by the hypothalamus in the brain, which helps maintain a stable internal body temperature through processes like sweating, shivering, and adjusting blood flow. Bones play a role in supporting the body, protecting organs, and producing blood cells, but they are not involved in regulating body temperature.

Why aren't bones covered in blood?

Bones do have blood vessels running through them in a soft tissue called bone marrow, which produces blood cells. However, the hard outer layer of bones, called compact bone, is not supplied with blood vessels on its surface. The periosteum, a thin membrane surrounding bones, is responsible for supplying blood to the outer layer of bones.
