Hematidrosis is a rare condition in which a human being sweats drops of blood. When a person is under extreme stress, the blood vessels surrounding the sweat glands can rupture allowing blood to migrate into the surrounding sweat glands which then produce drops of sweat mixed with blood. [See, Wikidoc, “Hematidrosis, 6/2/12]
