Pulmonologist,  's  Response
If your husband is coughing bloo(it appears to be of significant amount as per your description) he needs to go to a hospital as soon as possible. He should undergo certain tests like blood test, x ray chest and if required a CT chest. He may have to undergo tests to rule out any clot in the lungs. Based on these, the pulmonologist will start him on the treatment.
