A member asked:
Is coughing up blood normal for a patient with chronic bronchitis?

Needs Eval....: Coughing up blood is called hemoptysis. This should always be evaluated as it can be caused by malignancy. Most often it is caused by acute bronchitis but malignancy always needs to be ruled out first. See your doctor asap.
