Cough
Coughing may develop in a person with fluid in the lungs. They may cough up blood, their sputum may be tinged with blood or they may have pink, frothy mucus coming from their nose or mouth.2‘Pulmonary Edema.’ MedlinePlus, U.S. National Library of Medicine, medlineplus.gov/ency/article/000140.htm,3‘Pulmonary Edema.’ Mount Sinai Health System, www.mountsinai.org/health-library/condition/pulmonary-edema
This symptom commonly arises in people with heart failure. As the fluid builds up in the lungs, the body responds by coughing in an effort to expel the fluid from the lungs.4Team, Heart and Vascular. ‘Persistent Cough?
