Patient's question:
The baby is one and a half years old. Last night, while taking a nap, it started bleeding from the nose. In the morning, it bled again, but the blood was white, not red. We had a blood test, and the doctor said everything was normal. But why is there this kind of bleeding? I feel so sad. The baby is otherwise completely normal, except for this white blood discharge from the nose. What could be causing this?Doctor's answer:
The peeling of the nose, the local cause is mainly related to inflammation, trauma, and tumors. Children are more prone to this possibly because of mild inflammation causing discomfort, leading them to repeatedly dig their nose without restraint, making it difficult to identify the root cause. The main approach is to educate children to develop good living habits. Avoid consuming dry and spicy foods. Eating more lotus root can be beneficial for treating and preventing nosebleeds in children.
