Why did gargling with salt water make the roof of my mouth bleed? When I spit the water out I noticed blood...I got a flashlight to look in a mirrorr and the roof of my mouth was bleeding...the reason I gargles was because I had white bumps in the back of my throat. Why did it bleed?
Thanks for your query, I have gone through your query. The bleeding from the mouth could be because of the gum infection which causes bleeding from gums. The other causes could be any break or cut in the mucosa or any bleeding disorders like thrombocytopenia. Consult your oral physician and get your teeth cleaned and get complete hologram done including BT, CT, INR to rule out bleeding disorder. I hope my answer will help you. Take care.
