What Is The Cause Of Blood Clots Inside The Mouth?
I get these random blood clots inside my mouth, they appear in random parts of the inside of my mouth (cheeks, lower/upper lip) and usually disappear within a day or even a few hours. It doesn't appear to be bitten skin or anything. So why do these appear? and what are they?

thanks for your query, i have gone through your query, the bleeding in the oral cavity could be because of the infected gums or bleeding disorders like thrombocytopenia or pulp polyp or pyogenic granuloma... consult your oral physician and get you complete hemogram done including platelet count and INR. I hope my answer will help you, take care.
