Is the blood coming from your mouth, in your saliva, or from your lungs after coughing? It sounds like you had acute bronchitis, which is the most common reason for coughing up blood. If you continue to cough up blood or you are coughing up increasing amounts, then you need ot see your doctor. You may need to see a lung doctor as well. If it is coming from your mouth, see a dentist if it continues
