Patient's question:
My child often gets nosebleeds for a while. What is going on? About the past treatment and effectiveness: I went to the hospital and they said it was caused by the child picking their nose. What kind of help is needed: I just want to ask what to do to help.Doctor's answer:
Nosebleeds may be caused by dry air and dry nasal mucosa, which can become fragile and prone to tearing. You can visit a hospital to obtain petroleum jelly or mint oil for application in the nasal cavity. Additionally, a doctor can examine the nasal vessels and cauterize them to prevent frequent tearing. It is also recommended to check a blood test to rule out any blood system disorders. You may also consult an ophthalmologist to address issues like a deviated septum.Advice: It is advisable to drink more water, eat more vegetables, and avoid picking the nose.
