It could possibly be caused by blood backing up in the lungs from the heart not pumping properly (Congestive Heart failure). the blood could be actually coming from the lungs and being coughed up

Do you bleed from the mouth during a heart attack?

Not from the heart attack itself. In a heart attack, the heart is deprived of oxygen from the blockage of a coronary artery. This does not usually cause bleeding, but it does cause the death of the muscle cells if they don't get oxygen.


Can a heart attack make you bleed through mouth and nose?

Not directly, no. In a heart attack one of the arteries feeding the heart gets clogged and part ofthe heart muscle dies due to lack of oxygen. This can hapen and not be noticed, be mistaken for indigestion or cause symptoms luch as chest pain or pressure, dizziness and shorness of breath. It is possible for a heart attack to weaken the pumping action of the heart muscle and casue fluid to build up in the lungs. Occasionally this could present with coughing up blood tinged sputum which could be cinfused with bleeding from the mouth and nose


Can an infected tooth cause heart attack?

Yes of course it can! It may lead to a cardiovascular disease.

Does air conditioning cause a sore throat?

Not exactly. Air conditioning removes moisture from the air (so it can be very humid outside, but not inside). Removing moisture from the air contributes to dry mouth. If you are a mouth breather, you will also dry out your mouth. The dryness of room air, along with dryness from mouth breathing, can cause sore throats--especially in the morning.

What can cause me to become lightheaded very tired and have very dry mouth?

Dehydration is a probable cause. It could also be due to a sinus infection. The infection (if severe enough) can cause dizziness, tiredness and a very dry mouth. Also, certain medications can cause this. It would be a good idea to have your doctor examine you, to rule out any possible serious illnesses, and to rule out a minor stroke or heart attack.
