U need to get an x ray chest done to rule out chest problem..coughing out blood is not good..the doctors do bronchoscopy to rule out any serious cause.
So get urself investigated and rule out all dangerous causes.
Till then u can use a cough suppresant to get relief from the symptoms.

Seeing blood outside body is usually a call for concern.
Glad you came to this platform and shared your concern
Rigorous coughing does certainly put pressure on your airway lining and causes it to tear..
It will stop bleeding once your cough subsidies
