What exactly does it mean if you start coughing up blood?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Coughing Blood: Hematochezia is not a good sign. Get into the er now for an immediate evaluation. This is not something to be toyed with or taken lightly. It might be minor but it could be something major and it would be foolish to "wait it out." coughing up blood is a very significant symptom.
