Questions
In the field of pediatric otorhinolaryngology, parents often consult about the treatment of allergic rhinitis in 2-year-old children, including frequent nosebleeds after catching a cold or exposure to cold, previous medical consultations and treatment outcomes, and the effectiveness of homemade herbal remedies. Parents are concerned about how to further help their child.
Answers
There are many causes of nosebleeds, including trauma, acute and chronic inflammation, and blood diseases. According to the description, the child has undergone examinations at several hospitals without discovering any significant issues, which can rule out blood diseases and nasal inflammation. Possible causes may include environmental factors (dry climate, air dust), fragile blood vessels during growth and development, and bad habits (nose picking). Once a nosebleed occurs, immediately stop nose picking, apply pressure with a cotton ball to stop the bleeding, and avoid washing or rubbing. If bleeding cannot be stopped, use an adrenaline needle soaked in a wet cotton ball to compress the nasal cavity. For the questions asked by parents, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital for targeted examinations to avoid unnecessary detailed checks.
