Is Blood In Mouth Due To Sinuses And Teeth Pain?
Recently had a tooth extraction on an upper top molar due to unknown pain. It has been five weeks and immediately after extraction sinus issues have been occurring. Now for past week I taste blood in mouth and thought it was the wound, but it s mostly healed. I feel lump in throat and tried to spit out sputum and found it tinged with blood. I am spitting blood tinged saliva, too. The bad taste in mouth is horrible. And believe it or not going to see dentist again there is pain in the adjacent teeth of extraction. Can blood be from sinuses as well as teeth pain. I d dislike losing another tooth for the wrong reason.Thanks!
