A member asked:

Is it normal for my 1.5 yr old son to have a nosebleed every time he has a extreme temper tantrum?

Specializes in Family Medicine

SpontaneousNosebleed: First, the situation you describe with your young son is NOT normal. He needs to see a pediatric ENT specialist or a general ENT specialist to ensure he does not have errant blood vessels in the nasal septum and/or nasal cavity.
