A member asked:
I have had about 3 nosebleeds in the past 6-8 weeks. not too serious, but unusual for me. should i consult my primary care physician?

Yes.: It could be a sign of hypertension or a bleeding disorder. It also could be a sign of lesion inside your nose that needs attention. Finally, it could just be a sign that your mucous membranes are dry from home heating systems.

Emollient: You may apply a small amount of emollient,like vaseline, daily, to the inside of your nose. apply sparingly and only to the part near the opening to avoid getting it into your lungs. If that does not help, do see your doctor.
