Patient's question:
Recently, I have been having nosebleeds intermittently for the past year.Doctor's answer:
The cotton swabs can be soaked in a 1% ephedrine solution, 1‰ epinephrine solution, 3% hydrogen peroxide solution, or thrombin, and tightly packed in the nose for several minutes to several hours to achieve hemostasis. If the effect is not good, a nasal endoscopy examination should be done at the hospital. The best approach is to identify the bleeding point under a nasal endoscope and perform hemostatic treatment, such as laser, packing, cryotherapy, or microwave therapy.
