Is cough with blood the prediction of cancer?

[taha.bluebird]

I heard from somewhere that coughing with blood tends towards cancer. This case normally happens with smokers.
What is your opinion?

[sesilak]

persistent cough with bloody sputum or frank blood is a major sign of tuberculosis along with other signs like night sweats, persistent fever, general body weakness, loss of appetite, loss of weight.please let whoever has these visit the nearest health clinic.
generally whoever has cough with bloody sputum should visit the nearest hospital,it could be the beginning of so many things.

Coughing with blood is an important symptom since it would mean serious lung conditions. I think you must consult a doctor when this happened to you for proper medication. Right?

Not at all.
you can get it in conditions other than cancer also.
