A member asked:

My 2yo gets nose bleeds and it stops rather quickly but will be all over her face. it happens every couple months. does it sound like bleeding prob?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Nose bleeds are : Common in childhood & often reflect irritants like dust, pollen, fumes, smoke etc that the kid is exposed to on a regular basis.These things accumulate in the nasal passages & lead to nasal rubbing when the kids are half asleep or during the day.The trauma causes small capillaries in the nose to blead.Nasal saline wash can remove the irritants & nasal saline gel helps if applied at night.
