A member asked:

My son got a nose bleed in his sleep last night . while cleaning him i noticed the very very strong metallic smell. does that mean he's anemic?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: A metallic smell after a nose bleed is very common and means nothing. Be sure your son does not have a foreign body in the nose causing the nose bleed.
