Spitting blood
I’ve been spitting blood since few months. I went to consult with an ENT on June. She said my throat looks fine and there is a small dent inside my nose and prescribed me with some medicines. The blood went away for a few days. I have a blood test report from June 4th. I have not been able to get it checked due to my schedule.
My history is I had been smoking a lot due to stress. I’ve reduced. Whenever I smoke, I can smell blood when I breathe and I spit or (maybe cough) blood. I feel like something is mildly blocking my lungs when I breathe.
