Seek treatment: Blood in your sputum may indicate a serious problem. The source needs to be identified, it may represent gastric bleeding, esophageal tears or a tumor of the pulmonary or digestive tract. See a doctor for an exam. You may require a endoscopy or imaging studies. It may prove to be nothing but if the worst case turns out to be true, waiting will only increase the complexity of treatment.
