Need a blood check -complete blood count,platelets, Xray chest for pneumonitis.probably it is some infection.sputum culture should also be done.paracetamol plus cough syrup should be taken for relief and wait for blood report and sputum report, if bacterial infection then suitable antibiotic coverage shall be a must.Chest infection may show on x ray.Consult some physician in ER or privately
Despite the long description, there are not enough and relevant details for a specific diagnosis...
Spitting of blood is a sure indication for further tests - X-rays and blood tests...
You may have a second opinion You can have a change of antibiotic, if you are not happy with the present one
Discuss with your doctor...
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
