blood in saliva

I have recently been experiencing the taste of blood in my mouth.  When I spit out, I am seeing traces of blood.  I had chest x-rays that came out clear.  I saw an ear nose throat doctor who checked my nose and throat and saw nothing except excess mucous.  He prescribed a nasal spray for me.  I have been using it for about two weeks now, and am still seeing and tasting the blood.  I am also experiencing some pressure in my throat.  Any suggestions on who to see or what could be going on?

Did you ever find out what those "white" bumps were behind your front teeth?  My grandson has Hemochromatosis and had extra "small" teeth growing behind his front teeth. They had to be removed.

You might want to try some Elderberry for the sinus/allergy problems.  I have GERD too and recently discovered Nux Vomica - in time it can even cure ulcers.  I hate taking Prilosec or Nexium as eventually they cause other health problems.  I have also taken Chinese Curing Pills from the health food store.  They help this problem, too. I prefer natural supplements as I don't want any more chemicals in my body.

I was having some traces of blood in my saliva but not sure what it was. I took cotton swabs and swabbed the back of my throat and no blood. I swabbed all over the inside of my mouth and come to find out it wast tongue bleeding. Maybe from being so dry, usually in the morning. Hope this might help.

I have exactly the same symptoms like yours, but I feel warmth everywhere in my body and head, not only in my mouth and than starting to have blood in my saliva. The ENT doctor told me that it colud be from my weak capillary and she prescribed me a medicine. I take it 2 months already, but the things ain't getting better, I still have blood in my throat. Please share if you found out a solution for your problem!
