Teen Who Cries Blood

Here’s an eerie medical phenomenon that seems like it should only occur in movies. A 15-year old boy from Tennessee is crying blood. Literally. Calvino Inman noticed his reflected after a shower a few months ago and saw that he had blood coming from his eyes.

His condition, called “haemolacria” is sometimes seen in people who “have experienced extreme trauma or who have recently had a serious head injury.” The problem? Inman didn’t have these types of things happen to him.

Doctors are running him through the usual battery of tests, but thus far nothing out of the ordinary has been found. The teen has several medical experts now working on his case.
