Since how many days she is getting Chat Doctor.  Most commonly acute bronchitis associated with hemoptysis. So get it done CXR and sputum examination.  Till that time you can use tab/syrup azithromycin 10 mg /kg and tab./syrup Definite 8 mg/kg /24hours. Along with that you continue symptomatic treatment. Advice plenty of fluids, bronchodilators, NSAIDs for pain relief.
