I found blood in my vomiting from last 5 days. It is not like a normal blood. Its dark red or little bit black blood. And its not merged with water but it come in separate like vanes. I'm not a smoker or never alcoholic. I don't know what happen and what to do.

Fresh red blood comes from gums, mouth, throat and oesophagus but if the blood is blackish then it comes out from the stomach because the acid of stomach turns hemoglobin to blackish brown colour. Get a thorough dental check up and if nothing is found then an get an ent check up. Do complete blood count especially platelets, with bleeding time & clotting time to check for any bleeding tendency. Look for bluish black patches anywhere on the body. If yes then show to your physician. If all the findings are normal then no need to worry.
