Patient's question:
Morning, I had a nosebleed a lot. When I woke up, it wasn't very bright outside. I heard her sniffling, and wiped it a few times, only to find it was blood. She cried hard and rubbed her nose with her little hands. I was in a hurry to take her to the bathroom because she hadn't peed all night. When she was urinating, the nosebleed got worse...Doctor's answer:
Here is the English translation of the provided text, with the specified requirements followed:To clarify for you! There are many reasons for nosebleeds, including nose injuries, dry crusts forming on the mucous membranes, damage from acidic or alkaline substances, excessive sun exposure, and excessive alcohol consumption. Frequent nosebleeds are often complications of cardiovascular system issues, internal organ problems, various infections, blood diseases, and other illnesses.
Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that nosebleeds are caused by the upward reversal of a person's qi and blood. The nose is connected to the lung orifices, so when nose problems occur, they are generally closely related to abnormalities in the lungs and liver. When a person's qi and blood surge, especially when lung qi is particularly hot, nosebleeds may occur. When lung qi is too hot, the person's eyes may also have bloodshot eyes or broken skin.
The reasons for diarrhea and nosebleeds are the same—they are both results of the upward reversal of qi and blood—but diarrhea is not a cause of nosebleeds.
Solutions for nosebleeds in children
Children most commonly (more than 90%) experience nosebleeds at the location of the nasal septum membrane, about one to two centimeters inside the nostril, because it is close to the anterior nostril. Therefore, when nosebleeding occurs, the most convenient local compression and medication can be applied first.
