Nasal bleeding is a condition caused by the rupture of blood vessels in the nasal cavity. There are many causes, either local or systemic, and not all nosebleeds are caused by leukemia.
Leukemia is a systemic cause of nasal bleeding and can be accompanied by bleeding from other parts of the body, such as bleeding gums, petechiae or petechiae on the skin mucosa, and bleeding in the stool. Hematologic tests can reveal a significant increase in white blood cells, while bone marrow aspiration tests show the presence of a large number of naïve white blood cells.
Inflammation of the nasal mucosa can lead to rupture of the nasal blood vessels, and most examinations will reveal symptoms of congestion, erosion, and rupture of the nasal mucosa. Most bleeding is relatively small and can be quickly stopped after performing nasal compression. Most have a history of rhinitis attacks prior to the onset of rhinorrhea.
Systemic factors may also be seen in the form of increased vascular fragility due to coagulation factor deficiency or hypertension, diabetes mellitus, etc., resulting in bleeding, most of which can be detected by hematologic testing or blood pressure or glucose monitoring.
