What Causes Discharge Of Blood In Saliva?

I am getting blood from my mouth through spit (bright red in color). The first nasal video endoscopy showed pus and pharyngeal contraction. I was prescribed antibiotics and nasal spray.



After 3 days the blood discharge went down and then suddenly shot up on 4th day. I took another antibiotic (azithromycin) and the blood stopped for 2-3 days and then it started again. Rust color mostly and red color once a day.



Therafter i got another nasal video endoscopy done which showed no infection and reports were normal. Chest X Ray showed normal Reports. CT Neck showed normal reports. Checked through a dentist and my gums and mouth are fine.



What could be the cause of blood discharge from saliva?
