Blood While Spitting, Bad Breath After Giving Up Smoking. What Is The Problem?

When my husband spits there is blood in it, I have looked in his mouth and cannot see where it is coming from, he blew his nose and there was no sign of blood. He has been complaining of blood taste in his mouth shortly after he gave up smoking in January and has also had very bad breath, please advise if he should see our GP thank you.
