What’s wrong with waking up in the morning with blood in your nose?

The causes of nosebleeds in the morning include local factors and systemic factors. 1. Local factors (1) Deviated nasal septum: the mucous membrane at the deviated place is thin, the surface mucus is less and the mucous membrane is dry and cracked, so it ruptures and bleeds. (2) Nasal tumors: such as capillary hemangioma of nasal septum and inferior turbinate, nasopharyngeal fibrous hemangioma and so on. (3) Rhinitis and special infectious diseases of nasal cavity: acute and chronic rhinitis, tuberculosis, leprosy and syphilis, etc., which cause bleeding due to mucous membrane erosion and ulceration. (4) Nasal foreign body: common in children. (5) Pharyngeal tonsil hypertrophy: mostly caused by secondary inflammation and congestion of nasal mucosa. (6) Metabolic reaction: repeated nosebleeds may be related to metabolic reaction. 2. Systemic causes (1) Diseases of heart and circulatory system: such as hypertension, mitral stenosis and so on. (2) Bleeding disorders: various types of leukemia, hemophilia, pernicious anemia, etc. are prone to nosebleed. (3) Nutritional disorders or vitamin deficiencies: lack of vitamin C, K, B, P and calcium in the blood is prone to bleeding. (4) Liver and kidney diseases: because liver disease can affect the formation of thromboplastin, uremia is easy to cause damage to small blood vessels. (5) Poisoning: many chemicals such as phosphorus, mercury, monument, benzene, etc., can destroy the function of hematopoietic system. (6) Endocrine disorders: female menstruation, menopause can occur nosebleeds. (7) Hereditary hemorrhagic capillary dilatation disease: it is easy to have repeated nosebleeds. Patients with nosebleeds should go to the hospital in time to find out the cause and standardize the treatment under the doctor’s guidance.
