Cough
When the blood clots block the vessels in your lungs, the body will respond by coughing in an attempt to remove the blockage. The frequency and intensity can depend on the size of the clots. In early stages, you might have might coughs that look like a mild cold. But when the blood clots progress and become bigger, the cough would get worse and affect your daily life. Having a physical exam is needed to identify the underlying cause and take some measures to alleviate the symptom. [3]
