I'm really struggling with this issue and it's so horrible that I can't even bear to think about going to the bathroom. I've been trying osil, but it doesn't seem to be working. Is there anything else I can do to get some relief quickly?

I've been waking up with small blood spots in my spit, and sometimes there's pink mucus. I was diagnosed with antral gastritis after an endoscopy. My HR CT scans of the neck and chest came back normal. I also deal with acid reflux. The first time I noticed blood, it was after a day of vomiting on an empty stomach, really forceful stuff. An ENT specialist mentioned a tear in my throat might be the cause, and after a while, the bleeding stopped. But now, two months later, it's happening again. Could you help me figure out what's going on?

The recurring blood spots and pink mucus in your spit, despite normal HR CT scans, may be related to your antral gastritis and acid reflux, which can cause stomach acid to flow up into your throat, leading to irritation, minor tears, and bleeding, so consult your gastroenterologist to adjust your acid reflux treatment and consider a follow-up endoscopy to assess your gastritis.
