A member asked:

Hoping you can tell me, is bloody nose a symptom of ear infection?

Dr. Sanford Archer answered

Specializes in ENT and Head and Neck Surgery

Not likely: A bloody nose is a symptom of nasal dryness in most cases. Lubricating with vaseline is helpful, apply every few hours and drink plenty of fluids. If bleeding continues, see your doctor or and ENT specialist.
