Hi..
Welcome to HEALTHCARE MAGIC..

I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns..

As per your complain if you have infection in mouth causing abscess whether it is tooth or gum abscess the infected pus can get swallowed and can infect the throat, stomach and if gets aspirated in the respiratory tract can cause upper as well as lower respiratory tract infection..

You should not delay and consult an Otolaryngologist and get evaluated and he/she can advise a chest x Ray to rule out the cause of coughing up of blood and treat accordingly.
Consult an Oral Physician and get your Oral cavity evaluated and the abscess will be treated according to the cause..

Hope this information helps
