Question

“What could be the reasons for a 8-year-old child having multiple nosebleeds over the past year, accompanied by dizziness? Why would dizziness occur as well?”

Answer

“Nosebleeds can be categorized into two types: anterior and posterior. The posterior type primarily affects the elderly, especially those with hypertension. In this case, blood flows from the back of the nose, along the back of the throat, regardless of the patient’s posture. In severe cases, blood may flow out from both the front and back. This type of nosebleed requires professional treatment in a hospital. The anterior type is the most common, with blood flowing out from the front of the nose.”
