Question
My child has been complaining of stomachaches and nosebleeds for many years. Recently, a cold has brought on tonsillitis, pharyngitis, accompanied by coughing and fever. The medicine doesn’t seem to help either. What can I do? What kind of help is needed: what to do when a child has stomachache and nosebleeds?
Answer
Stomachaches and nosebleeds in children may be due to dry air and dry nasal mucosa, which are prone to cracking. You can go to the hospital to get some Vaseline or menthol oil to apply to the nasal passages. You can also ask the doctor to carefully examine and cauterize some of the blood vessels inside the nasal cavity to prevent frequent cracking. It’s also advisable to have a blood test to check for any blood system diseases. See an otolaryngologist to check for conditions like a deviated nasal septum. It’s important to stay hydrated, eat more vegetables, and avoid nose picking in everyday life. These are suggestions for the question ‘What to do when a child has stomachache and nosebleeds,’ hoping they will be helpful to you, wishing you good health!
