What Coud Cause Bleeding In Teeth With Fatigue?
This morning while I was brushing my teeth, I noticed my toothbrush was orange and I spit out more blood than usual about three times. I brush my teeth often and probably a little too hard, but this seemed more excessive than usual and felt as if it was coming from my throat than my gums or anything. I have been feeling really fatigued and have trouble sleeping at night as well which is making me really paranoid. What could it be? Should I be worrying?

Hello:) Welcome to HCM.
Gum bleeding is not normal. It is suggestive of gingivitis.
You may experience bad breath as well.
I strongly recommend you to go for a professional scaling with your dentist.
Also maintain proper oral hygiene.
Use mouthwash everyday for 1 week, followed by thrice every week.
Gum infection will not lead to major fatigue or hematemesis, please consult your physician, if it persists.
Regards.
