Pulmonary Embolism (PE) Symptoms
What are the symptoms of pulmonary embolism?
The most common symptoms of pulmonary embolism are:
- Sudden shortness of breath.
- Sudden, sharp chest pain that may get worse when you breathe deeply or cough.
- A cough. The cough may bring up blood or pink, foamy mucus.
Pulmonary embolism can also cause other symptoms. These include:
- A fast heart rate.
- Wheezing.
- Fainting.
If you have symptoms like these, you need to see a doctor right away, especially if they're sudden and severe. Quick treatment could save your life or reduce the risk of future problems.

Open trials refer to studies currently accepting participants. Closed trials are not currently enrolling, but may open in the future.
