Diffuse Alveolar Hemorrhage Occurring Suddenly in a Diabetic Patient With Asthma Exacerbation

Diffuse alveolar hemorrhage (DAH) is a rare but potentially life-threatening condition characterized by bleeding into the alveolar spaces of the lungs. DAH can occur due to a wide range of etiologies including autoimmune diseases, infections, drugs, and malignancies. The clinical presentation is variable and may include cough, dyspnea, fever, and hemoptysis. Diagnosis is often challenging due to the nonspecific symptoms and a lack of definitive diagnostic criteria. Treatment is primarily aimed at addressing the underlying cause and providing supportive care.
