Blood in tooth and tooth ache
Hi, I get tooth ache randomly on left side. It stays for 15 min to 30 min and goes away. I'm not sure where exactly is the pain. Usually after eating something.
I have also seen blood coming out of the last tooth in the lower left. Pain and bleeding don't occur simultaneously. I've observed when I've pain there is no blood and when it's bleeding I usually don't have pain.

Tooth pain has many reasons. Firstly we need to know where exactly the pain is. It would be easy to diagnose if you could upload a picture of the left side tooth's.
If it is due to the very last teeth - your more likely advised to get it extracted
If the bleeding is due to periodontal ( gum) problems- scaling will help.
If it is due to decay in any tooth - might go for a RCT
Next Steps
see a dentist immediately.
Health Tips

Good observation. Usually the bleeding happens from the gums around the tooth and not the tooth. Due to tooth decay or gum pocket, there is accumulation of food particles and plaque causing the gums to get inflamed and bleed easily. When pressure builds up in the gum pocket, it pains. But after it bleeds, the pressure is relieved, so you will not have pain.
Go to a dentist/periodontist and get a clinical check up done and a tooth X-ray also.
Next Steps
Till then u can do warm salt water rinses for some relief
