10 Bronchiectasis Symptoms
Symptom #3: Coughing Up Blood
It is not unusual for us to cough; it is just the body’s way of helping to keep the airways clear. If you do notice that you are coughing up something that you shouldn’t be, though, then you should pay attention. This is particularly the case if you are coughing up blood.
It is possible that coughing up blood is down to a minor injury, but this would only produce a small amount of blood. It could also be a sign of bronchiectasis, however, and is something that you should get checked out. Coughing up blood can also be a sign of a number of other potentially serious problems.
