Internal Medicine Specialist, Dr. Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu's Response

Hello,

Blood may be coming from lower respiratory tract (tuberculosis, bronchitis) or bleeding from the gums. Polyps in the nasal cavity or sinusitis may also present like this. Get a chest X-ray and nasal endoscopy. Please consult with your physician, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Penchila Prasad Kandikattu, Internal Medicine Specialist
