A 14-year-old Texas girl has spent three years crying bloody tears, but doctors still aren't sure why it's happening, ABC affiliate KTRK reported Monday.

The girl, identified only as "Erica," reportedly noticed a white discharge coming from her eye when she was 11 years old. After that, the bleeding started.

The bloody tears stopped for about a year, the report added, but they returned again just this week.

Erica's mother, who was not identified by name in the report, said her daughter's peers have teased her so much about the condition, she had to get an emotional support dog.

Still, after many doctor's visits and a tear duct surgery, Erica's condition remains unexplained and unresolved, according to her mother.
