Brief Answer:
You probably have an inflamed throat!

Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you so much for this query.

I am so sorry to here about this feeling of the taste of blood. I am sire you must have been asking yourself several questions about this. From the information you have provided, you most likely have a viral infection of the throat. This will cause blood vessels to be fragile and cause minute look leakages and this is what gives you the funny taste of blood. As the throat eases and heals, this taste will also disappear and all will return to normal. Please, be calm and all will be well sooner than later.

I hope this helps. I wish you well. Feel free to ask for more information and clarifications if need be. Above all, thanks for using our services.
