What Causes Rust Colored Saliva While Spitting In The Morning?
hello,
almost every morning when i wake up i spit out brown/rust colored saliva. it is not phlegm and is not a result of coughing. it is only in the morning, and after spitting a few times it returns to a normal, clear color. what causes this and who should i see?
Hi, From history it seems that you might be having some problem in your teeth, infection in gums, tartered teeth or ulcer in mouth. Consult oral surgeon and get examined. Keep oral hygiene proper. Do tooth brush daily two times a day, morning and at night. Ok and take care.
