Question

A three-month-old child frequently has nosebleeds, with routine blood tests and nasal endoscopy showing no problems. They bled again today, and the parents are very worried, not knowing what to do. They seek professional advice.

Answer

Nosebleeds in children may be caused by hot weather, emotional excitement, or insufficient sleep leading to reversed Qi and blood flow, or they might be related to excessive consumption of spicy food causing lung heat. Direct sunlight exposure can also lead to the dilation of blood vessels in the head, triggering nosebleeds. It is recommended to avoid direct sunlight exposure, reduce the intake of spicy food, and ensure adequate rest.
