Collapsed/punctured lung

2018-03-02 07:42:12
I've recently had a punctured and collapsed lung from a stab wound , and it's been a week since I've been out of the hospital. I know I can't smoke since it'll probably collapse my lung and cause breathing problems. But I've coughed blood recently , just a little bit but I started vaping as an alternative and was wondering if that was what caused me to cough out blood ?

Vaping can cause cough and excessive or forceful coughing can lead to blood while cough. I would advise you to stop smoking, vaping, tobacco chewing to let you body heal faster.
