Blood from the base of the tongue?
4 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Blood from Tongue: Bleeding can come from the base of tongue, but it is not the first source to suspect. Rule out other sources of bleeding. The most important part of the process is a thorough history to assess risk factors. Go see an ENT to evaluate your bleeding.

Need Consultation: Not normal. Bleeding is something that requires a dentist to evaluate this now.
