A single episode of blood in the sputum followed by 8 months without any recurrence or symptoms is reassuring, but the exact cause cannot be determined without reviewing your chest X-ray and clinical history.
Next Steps
If you cough up blood again, or develop persistent cough, weight loss, fever, chest pain, or breathlessness, seek medical evaluation promptly.
