My boyfriend is having a nosebleed for about 15 mins now, and coughing up blood as well. He drinks 6-10 beers a day for a few years now and also smokes a pack of cigrattes a day. He gets short of breath and has heart palpations to. Does he have liver or lung cancer? He will not go to the doctor, Im scared and dont know what to do.
Hi and welcome to Chat Doctor. Thank you for the query. The cancer isn't first thing to think about. He probably coughs his blood whicChatDoctores from nose. If you are sure that he cough blood without nose bleeding then he should definitely visit specialist. Alcohol and smoking can cause his symptoms without cancer occurring. Breathing shortness and heart disorders are usual signal of unhealthy habits, so this is the only thing that he should change. Wish you good health.
