    Cry Blood: ‘Haemolacria’.
    It is a physical condition that causes a person to produce tears that are partially composed of blood. It can manifest as tears that are anything from merely red-tinged to appearing to be entirely made of blood.
    Haemolacria is a symptom of a number of diseases and may also be indicative of a tumor in the lachrymal apparatus. It is most often provoked by local factors such as bacterial conjunctivitis, environmental damage or injuries

    Sweat Blood: ‘ Hematohidrosis’.
    Although this medical condition is relatively rare, according to Dr. Frederick Zugibe (Chief Medical Examiner of Rockland County, New York) it is well-known, and there have been many cases of it. Around the sweat glands, there are multiple blood vessels in a net-like form. Under the pressure of great stress the vessels constrict. Then as the anxiety passes the blood vessels dilate to the point of rupture. The blood goes into the sweat glands. As the sweat glands are producing a lot of sweat, it pushes the blood to the surface - coming out as droplets of blood mixed with sweat.
