A member asked:
My boyfriend has been sick with a cold for weeks and has been blowing blood out his nose now for about a week what is causing it to happen?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Need to examine: It is not feasible to provide a meaningful opinion without taking additional history, physical examination and may be some tests. It would be prudent to see your doctor as a usual cold does not last weeks and bleeding is always a cause for concern.
