Sometimes coughing can burst a little blood vessel in your throat but there are many more causes. Some of them are harmless and some more serious. Please check this out with your doctor.

Yes it has happened to me. I even took a picture of it so if my pulmonologist asks what color I can show her. A picture is worth a thousand words . helps to document things ..good luck mamaste

Good luck . i have learned from past events when a doctorcask u to discribe something its best to have a picture. When i had bleeding ulcers i actually brought the evidence to the doctor . because when they ask was it red or coffee gound like i show them ! 3 bleeding ulcers n a blood transfusion. U have ro be proactive . photos are very useful
