I'm really worried about this cough I've been having. An X-ray showed there's some haziness in my lungs, and the term "pneumonitis" came up. Can you explain what might be causing this and what kind of treatment I should consider?

View allI'm really worried about my friend who's only 23. Last year she suddenly started coughing up blood, and after all the tests, the X-ray wasn't promising. She consulted Dr. Dinesh, who's a chest specialist, and started on a TB treatment. She finished her TB course just last month, but this morning, she started coughing up blood again. What should we do for her?
It sounds like the patient is experiencing recurrent bleeding after completing TB treatment. Given her history, it's crucial to reassess her condition with further investigations, such as a chest X-ray or sputum test, to rule out any complications or relapse of TB. Immediate consultation with a specialist is recommended for a tailored treatment plan.

it depends on saturation of that patient

So, this morning I noticed I had thick yellow sputum with some blood in it, but it only happened once and I haven't had any other symptoms. I'm kinda worried about what might be going on. Is this something serious, or could it just be a random thing? What should I be doing or watching out for?
