Thank you for your query,
The chances of blood coming out of your root canal treated tooth is rear, but have to be ruled out.
Other than that, we have to eliminate the other causes of it as, pathology of the gums, tongue or associated mucosa.
The best you should do is to consult your Dentist, he will find out the underlying pathology and treat it accordingly.
