Bloody mouth

TOA · 04-14-2005, 01:54 AM

Hi all,

A couple of times the last week I have woken with blood in my mouth - I haven't tasted it, I just notice it when I dispel the morning mouthal contents!

I have no cuts in my mouth so I can only assume it's from my gums - anyone have any idea's why?

I brush regularly!

Not too long ago I had this happen to me. I believe it was actually from a bloody nose. The blood coagulated more internally, so it kind of ran down my nasal passage and into my mouth. You might try blowing your nose and see if any blood is present.

If this isn't the case, it does sound kind of odd. Maybe you should get it checked out.

be sure to floss twice daily also. Brushing alone is not enough. If you do not floss then there is a chance your gums can bleed alot.
