What is the reason for frequent nosebleeds in 9-year-old children?

Patient's question:

The child has only been born for a few days, and recently they have been scratching their ears for some reason. I wonder what's wrong with a 9-year-old child frequently having nosebleeds?

Doctor's answer:

There are many reasons for nosebleeds, which may be due to dry air and dry, fragile nasal mucosa that is prone to bleeding. You can go to the hospital to get some petroleum jelly or mint oil to apply to the nasal cavity. You can also ask the doctor to examine and cauterize the blood vessels in the nasal cavity to prevent frequent nosebleeds. Additionally, you should have a complete blood count test to check for any blood system diseases. It's also recommended to see an ophthalmologist to check for conditions like a deviated septum.
