Question 1

can you tell me how could i stop my nose bleeding?

Accepted Answer

Nose bleeds: If your nose bleeds hold your nostrils between fingers for about 10 minutes.  Sit up ; hold your head ; neck forward so the blood doesn’t just flow down your throat. If you are able to – place a moistened cotton ball over the area that is bleeding.  If you can’t control the bleeding after 20 minutes – seek medical assistance.

Question 2

causes for nose bleeding? how do i permanently stop it? please help.

Accepted Answer

See doctor: It sounds like you've been dealing with nose bleeds for awhile. You need to see your doctor for a full examination and blood work to make sure everything is fine in your blood. Also, sometime there's a little blood vessel in the lining of your nasal passage that needs to be cauterized. An ENT doctor would be able to help you with that.

Question 3

is it a bad idea to tilt my head backwards to stop nose bleeding ?

Accepted Answer

Yes: The best thing to do with a nose bleed is to sit up, lean your head forward with your chin on your chest and grab your nose and your face tightly and squeeze for 15 minutes. That should stop most bleeds.

Question 5

my son, almost 3 years old, gets extreme nose bleeding. do i need to see a doctor? how can i stop the bleeding quickly?

Accepted Answer

Nose bleeds: Prechoolers often have nose bleeds due to dry air and/or picking their nose.  Applying vasoline-petroleum jelly and salt water drops to nares can help prevent nose bleed. Stop a nose bleed by pinching the nares together.  You should  have your child's nose checked by a doctor if the nose bleeds are frequent.

Question 6

hello. i've been suffering from nose bleeding, whenever i blow my nose. what should i use to stop my nose from bleeding? i have allergic rhinitis. tha

Accepted Answer

Spray technique: If you suffer from allergic rhinitis and are taking a daily intranasal spray medication your nose bleeds could be due to poor technique. Use proper technique to minimized nose bleeds. Make sure you are aiming sprayer away from septum. I tell my patients to aim toward outside corner of right eye if spraying in right nostril, and outside corner of left eye if spraying in left nostril.

Question 7

i have a nose bleeding?

Accepted Answer

About nosebleeds: Nosebleeds can be from many things that cause one of the little veins on the inside of the nose (usually the middle septum) to crack and leak temporarily. Heavy breathing in sports, hot or cold air, allergies, nose-picking, colds, a toy in the nose, etc., are some of the causes of nosebleeds. She who bleeds "too often" or "too long" can have her blood checked to see if her blood clots too slowly.

Question 8

why is my nose bleeding everyday?

Accepted Answer

: Bleeding from the nose occurs when a small blood vessel is so close to the surface that it accidentally gets broken. This can happen during nose picking, blowing the nose or just in dry or cold weather. Avoid putting anything in your nose, use a thin layer of vaseline or other protectant ointment if the air is dry and check your medications/supplements for ones that can cause less clotting.

Question 9

how can i treat my nose bleeding?

Accepted Answer

Depends: The treatment depends on the cause for the nosebleeds. Most are from the nasal septum which gets dried up in hot and dry weather. In such case nasal saline spray  or gel 2-4 x daily on the septum may help. If the problem persists, your doc can cauterize the bleeding points. If you have a blood disorder (coagulation disorder), then the solution would be more complex.  Avoid aspirin for now.

Question 10

whats the cause of nose bleeding ?

Accepted Answer

Depends on age: In children, the most common cause of nose bleeds is trauma or foreign body (most likely from picking with a finger). In adults, nose bleeds can be caused or prolonged by a number of factors. The most common of which would be blood-thinning medications like coumadin; plavix; Aspirin and trauma. Inherited blood clotting disorders may be a cause as well but are rare and would likely be known by you.
