Black spot in cough
I have been getting some kind of black spot in cough ( pure black..neither green nor red). I have been observing from last 1 year.. I get this everyday either in morning or evening. In last 20 days, I am getting it more frequently in a day. I am afraid. Please advise. Ps: I don't have asthma or any other health problem.
