Could Coughing Blood Be A Matter Of Concern For A Smoking Addict?
Yes, thank you, I am 72 and a smoker I just got over 2 weeks with the flu which left me with a cough. tonight i had a coughing spell and coughed up about a tsp of blood. Is this serious? I don't have any money to pay for this so guess I am out of luck.
Welcome to healthcaremagic. Coughing may erode small blood vesseel leading to blood coming during and after coughing. It seems to be a minor problem. But you should see your family doctor & if he feels he may go for some investigation. I hope this advise may help you.
