Dacryohemorrhea/ Lacrimae cruentae /Bloody tears etc. A Comprehensive Review of a Quaint Entity. Can you imagine crying tears of blood? It may sound like a horror movie, but bloody tears are actually a real thing. Crying bloody tears may seem like a fictional occurrence, but tears tinged with blood are an actual medical condition. Tears of blood have been documented through the ages, usually carrying a negative connotation. In some cultures, having bloody tears was once thought to be associated with demon possession. Referred to as Haemolacria, crying bloody tears is a condition that causes a person to produce tears tinged with, or partially made of, blood. In many cases, haemolacria is a symptom of another condition and is usually benign. However, if one has to experience any instance of blood mixed with tears, recurrent episodes, or accompanying symptoms, should seek immediate medical attention. Thankfully, most cases of haemolacria are benign and usually occur with a reasonable explanation. However, several conditions must be considered when making a diagnosis. Most cases of bloody tears usually resolve as fast as they start, but in some cases, serious causes, such as uncontrolled hypertension, malignant melanoma, or injury are to blame. Thus, an effort has been made in this E-Booklet to discuss several Etiologies, Pathophysiology, Differential Diagnosis, Management, Complications etc. elaborately along with plenty of relevant Illustrations for better understanding the entity! …Dr. H.
