What should I do if I have frequent nosebleeds?

The frequent occurrence of nosebleeds should be taken seriously. There are many causes of this condition, either due to nasal problems or systemic blood disorders that cause nosebleeds and require physical examination at a hospital.

Regular nosebleeds should not be self-repeated at home to stop the bleeding. Patients are advised to have a rhinoscopy to see if there is chronic inflammation of the nasal cavity, a deviated nasal septum or nasal tumors, which can cause recurrent nasal bleeding, and for inflammatory irritation of the nasal cavity or tumor disease, treatment is given according to the corresponding condition. There are also dry climate causes, need to drink more water, keep the air moist, as well as pay attention to eat more fruits and vegetables can prevent nose bleeding, appear bleeding more frequently or need to go to the hospital for treatment. There are also many patients who may have blood disorders. Patients can have a more comprehensive blood test to see if they have low platelets, purpura and other diseases, whether they have hemophilia, etc. The test reveals that there are problems with the blood, and they need to be referred to the hematology department for related further tests.

The frequent bleeding from the nose should not be ignored and requires further examination of the cause at the ear, nose and throat for early prevention and control of the condition, as well as attention to the bad habit of not picking the nose too often.
