Crying blood? What the heck?

Question

I was watching the news and i saw something about a kid who cried blood, literally. There's nothing that they know of that caused it. Like, he'd be sitting there then all of a sudden blood would just start coming out of his eyes like tears. They said it usually happened 3-4 times a day.

Have you ever heard of anything like this? If so please gice as much info as possible.

His name is Calvino Inman, 15 years old kid. It's called Haemolacria, bloody tears.

Answer 2

Umm... no I haven't heard of that.

Some animals, such as rats, gerbils, etc can appear to have blood tears... but it's actually a chemical called porphyrin secreted by their tear ducts that makes the tears appear red. Could the kid possibly have something like that maybe?

Answer 3

Idk but they should get that kid to a hospital not the news.
