Question
A 9-month-old child experienced nosebleeds upon waking up in the morning, with the situation being relatively severe. The bleeding increased after crying and rubbing the nose. Additionally, the child had a urge to urinate but didn’t go in time, which led to more nosebleeds.
Answer
Possible causes of nosebleeds include trauma (trauma), mucosal dryness, foreign body irritation, excessive sun exposure, and excessive alcohol consumption. Chronic nosebleeds may be complications of other diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that nosebleeds are related to lung heat and liver fire. Solutions include local compression to stop bleeding, ice packs, elevating the head, and maintaining emotional stability. For children, it is recommended to first try local compression with medication while keeping calm.
