Hi. Welcome to Chat Doctor . I have gone through your query and can understand your concerns. As per your complaint vomiting and nausea during brushing teeth is commonly seen in individuals as many individuals have a sensitive soft palate and when brush touches the palate deep or there is accumulation of foam and saliva in mouth there is a gag reflex and some people may tend to vomit. The brownish color that you have seen seems to be traces of blood that might have occurred due to bleeding from the area of throat due to vigorous gagging or can be due to bleeding from throat or pharyngeal region if you have any conditions like acid reflux, chronic upper respiratory tract infection, sinusitis, throat inflammation etc. In case if you experience frank blood or repeated episodes of brown color in saliva you should consult an Oral Physician or an Otolaryngologies and get evaluated and treatment of underlying cause will relieve the symptoms. Hope this information helps. Thanks and regards. Chat Doctor.
