bloody mouth
sometimes when i wake up in the morning and look in the mirror i have blood all over my teeth and my lips are all brown because it's dried blood (cus i have to sleep with my mouth open cus im a severe allergy sufferer). I know that it's not chocolate or anything because i always brush my teeth at night and my teeth are fine. this has happened to me probably 5 times, once at a sleepover (!) which made me rush to the bathroom really quick before anyone else saw. does anyone have any advice as to how to stop this and does anyone have the slightest idea what it could be (and why) it's happening? thanks.

I would definitely advise you to get to the dentist ASAP. While I highly doubt that this is an emergency, it's something you wanna get checked out. If I were you, I would start a journal and write down my nightly routine for a week. Maybe you're doing something without thinking about it and it's causing this to happen.
Maybe brushing your teeth before bed is causing this to happen. Maybe you're eating or drinking something that's irritating your gums. Like someone else said, maybe you're grinding your teeth as you sleep. There's endless possibilities, but writing down your routine will help to put those possibilities in your face and hopefully narrow it down so that you can find out what the problem is.
Good luck!

i have a feeling its dry lips. do u have dry lips becuase when u sleep with your mouth open and you strech your lips it rips in a way and bleeds!

you might be grinding your teeth, go see a doctor to get a mouthguard and more info. Or you might have very dry lips, which causes them to crack and bleed, use chap-stick to easily cure this. hope this helped!
