  5. I've noticed that sometimes my sputum has a really bad smell in the morning, but I don't have a cold or feel sick in any other way. I'm generally healthy otherwise. I'm curious if this could be a sign of something more serious, like lung cancer? It doesn't happen all the time, just occasionally. Should I be worried?
