Nausea is a very common symptom so it can’t direct us to any defined disorder. But coughing blood (haemoptoe/haemoptysis) is a more specific sign and directs us to several respiratory disorders like: bronchitis, bronchiectasis, pneumonia, lung carcinoma, tuberculosis, and other infectious pulmonary diseases.


You HAVE TO consult your primary health provider and probably a pulmonologist as soon as possible.
