If there is minimal blood stain in sputum , continue medicines . If there is significant blood , hemoptysis , need to consult a pulmonologist and needs to be worked up

A new chest xray should be done to see the extent of lung involvement and damage if any, vascular cause is also very common, please get her evaluated as soon as possible .if it is due to TB after some time it will improve but hemoptysis should be controlled to prevent any kind of cardiovascular compromise
