When I was a child, my nose got hit. Recently, for the past six months, I have been experiencing frequent nosebleeds. What should I do?

Patient's question:

When I was a child, my nose got hit. Recently, for the past year, I've been experiencing frequent nosebleeds. The hospital has conducted a thorough examination, taken X-rays, and checked my blood. In the past few weeks, almost every other day, I've been having nosebleeds. The child is only a few years old, and the constant nosebleeds are quite heart-wrenching to see.

Doctor's answer:

Currently, the careful examination results have confirmed a direct relationship with sinus inflammation and adenoid hypertrophy, leading to lymph node swelling. It is necessary to promptly administer intravenous fluids for anti-inflammatory treatment to promote the resolution of inflammation and closely monitor the situation. It is recommended that you have a nasal endoscopy examination to check for any recurrence of nasal mucosal ulcers. If this occurs, further examination of the six coagulation factors and erythrocyte sedimentation rate may be necessary.
