How does one know if one has a ruptured pulmonary artery?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
One is dead: A ruptured pa is one of the fastest ways to die. I wouldn't worry about it. If you're coughing up blood, and it's not from a nosebleed, that's a medical urgency if not emergency, but it's probably not a pa rupture.
