Blood During cough
Hi,
My father is a recovered TB patient.
In the month of May while coughing he had small amount of blood from mouth. We have consulted a doctor and he suggested to take trenexa medicine and antibiotics after using them for 1 week it has stopped.
Again it has started from yesterday 2 times while coughing very small amounts like lemon 🍋 size in diameter.
We have gone through the CT scan. Please find the attached report and scan images and let us know what to do
Thanks in Advance.
