A member asked:
I'm a smoker and i've been having pains in my chest and i've been coughing up brown and clear flem that sometimes has blood in it?

Have this checked: While this could simply be a bronchial infection, because you are a smoker i think it best for you to see your doctor. Other possibilities include but are not limited to chronic bronchitis, acute bronchitis and emphysema.
