See a doctor?

I had a similar problem to you years ago, especially in the summer.

I used to get nose bleeds simply from the heat outside, or even from sneezing! (as ridiculous as that sounds)

I have had nose bleeds in literally any scenario you can imagine, it wasn't good

As for advice, go see a doctor, as they can prescribe you with something that will help reduce your nose bleeds!

Drinking water helps.

My bro got them everyday but he went to the docs and he got it cauterised, and his nosebleeds stopped.

Check your blood pressure at the doctors. If I hadn't of had so many nosebleeds, it wouldn't of had the doctors looking into causes. I found out that it was a sign that my body was in distress. I got found to of had a 9mm gallstone through tests and scans. Hope that its nothing serious, if they last longer than 30mins, I would suggest getting to A&E and having your nose vessel thats bleeding quarterised, even if the nosebleed stops.

It happened to me. I would wake up in the middle of the night, my face really warm and ... wet. The worst part was when it got encrusted in my hair and skin. This really warrants a visit to your doctor. He'll take a look up your nose with a little torch, and I got given a nasal spray because it was, and I quote, "scabby". My sister has terrible nosebleeds, and she got prescribed some pills. We both got better. Seriously though, check it out with a doc.

When your nose starts bleeding, make sure you know how to make it stop. Pinch the top of the nose, the bony part, to constrict the blood vessels. Let the blood clot. You might need to change tissues often. Do not flush out your blood-bogeys or blow your nose really hard - especially when it's all... fresh ... after a nosebleed. See first-aid tips for better diagrams and demonstrations. When you feel the inevitable nosebleed behind the corner, I put plenty of soft kitchen towels/tissues on my pillow. So prepare yourself each night, also.

I've had them since I can remember. In the winter when its cold the nasal tissue dries up and the blood vessels crack and burst causing it to bleed. The best thing for that was to just pop some vaseline on it every morning to keep it moist.

In the summer it gets hot and the vessels swell up and burst. Not much you can really do for that. Either way go to the doctors and ask for it to be cauterised, for me that stops 95% of nosebleeds per year for me. I started getting it done once a year about 5 years ago and it honestly has stopped 95% of spontaneous bleeds. The only way it bleeds know is from a very hard knock - like most people.

Have a read of this

Really can't recommend it enough. My GP does it in his room and it takes 2 minutes, no special appointments or anything, very quick, and VERY efficient.

Has a nasal spray been used(a side effect is nosebleeds)? my brother had this issue of nosebleeds after nasal spray and today, i believe my friend is having nosebleeds because of the same reason.

I used to get nose bleeds everyday when I was young. I had cauterization twice. It would hurt but it only lasts for a few min.

Still have nose bleeds from time to time after using those nasal spray for blocked nose.

i feel lucky to say that i never have proper nose bleeds but my Nana has had some very bad nose bleeds and has had to go to hospital recently.I would advise you to leave your nose alone,i know that your 1st thought is to clean yourself up around the nose but this often exacerbates the bleed,making it a lot worse.

[SleepySheep]

I've never had a nosebleed and I used to be so jealous of the kids who got nosebleeds in primary school because I thought it was cool

Err anyway, I would see a doctor if it's happening all the time and affecting your sleep, etc. Good luck!

Same thing happen's to me just hold/pinch it hard with a tissue also hold your head down(don't hold it up otherwise deoxygenated blood will go back into your system) also drink cold water so your body tempreture cool's down might be worth sleeping in a cool room.

Or you can put a block of ice/ ice block on top of your nose (this would result in your tempreture going below the normal tempreture resulting in the blood clotting) obviously you don't want blood going everywhere while doing this sogo to a sink or something.

hope this helps

You should look into why you're getting them, ask for tests. It could be something serious, it was for me.

Go to see a doctor, either A and E or ENT, preferably when it's bleeding.

That way, they can see where it is coming from and cauterize it.

This involves putting a small stick with a small amount of silver nitrate at the end to burn the blood vessels.

Sounds painful but it's not really as you'll normally get an anaesthetic such as lignocaine.

See a doctor, apart from that pop into your local newsagent and ask for a new nose.
