When nicotine exerts its effect on the heart, the pulse rate of the smoker will increase while smoking the cigarette. A consequence of the pulse rate increasing is that the nicotine will raise the smoker's blood pressure.
Smoking affects your circulation. The cilia that move cells through blood in your body are damaged. Blood vessels are damaged. Your heart beats faster and your blood pressure goes up.
The nicotine in a cigarette causes small blood vessels to constrict, which thereby increases blood pressure.
Based on my own experience, cigarette smoking does have a slight effect on heart rate and blood pressure. Alcohol, caffeine, exercise, heat, stress, certain medications are everyday triggers for increased heart rate (and more so than cigarette smoking from my experience) and the effect can be cummulative for any combination of the above. (ho I am not a health professional)
It could be from cigarette or marijuana smoking or, in a worse case scenario, it could be blood in the mucous. A doctor's examination is warranted in either case.

Smoking.
Overall poor physical health, or specific problems such as cigarette smoking, obesity, high blood pressure, or diabetes, will increase the chance of complications.

Yes it can for the simple fact smoking raises your blood pressure
Smoking can cause hardening and constriction of the arteries so it is bad if you have high blood pressure.
Smoking raises your blood pressure. The nicotine in cigarettes stimulates the release of adrenaline, which can cause your heart rate to increase and blood vessels to constrict, leading to higher blood pressure. Additionally, the harmful chemicals in tobacco can damage blood vessel walls, contributing to long-term hypertension. Quitting smoking can help lower blood pressure and improve overall cardiovascular health.
