Different coloured saliva (sometimes)
For last 3 days in few occasions I have noticed a little rust/diluted pinkish coloured saliva while clearing throat and washing mouth. The saliva colour is different and not white. In other occasions it is regular white in colour. I have a history of tonsillitis and pharyngitis. My throat is redder than normal and warm. I don't have cough or fever. Everything is normal and no other symptoms.
Pink or red colored saliva is usually secondary to small bleeding spots in your mouth. You should check with the dentist to rule out any teeth or gum related problems. It is. Unlikely that tonsillitis is the reason
