Random Nosebleeds
For the past two days, for no apparent reason, my left nostril will just start bleeding. I have been sneezing frequently lately, but little to none for the past two days, just nosebleeds.
Is this maybe connected to sinuses or allergies?
Is there anything that I can do to prevent them from occuring??
Heh.. not the Texas I know... or at least East Texas, where I am. I'm literally on the Louisiana border. I live on Toledo Bend, so it's pretty humid here. and it just started yesterday...
I had a nosebleed everyday for three days once with the nosebleed alternating between my left and right nostril. I was glad when it ended because my dad told me he would take me to the doctor if I had one more. I did get to miss some school so it wasn't all that bad. :PHope ya feel better.
could be the sand, humidity, combined with an exposed vein... I have a sensitive nose... My left nostral has an exposed vein that ruptures easely... it sucks cause if i hit it in a certain way the vein breaks and i bleed A LOT.
Allright... I had another one this morning, during a shower, so it was pretty bad! LOLI think I'm going to go with Helms' original advice and see if it might be lack of humidity... it did rain though... but having a fireplace and burning wood along with a heater is just creating dry air, so that might be behind it... I'm going to use a humidifier for a few days, and if that doesn't work, and I progress with nosebleeds, I will eventually vye for Cauterisation.Thanks you guys!
well I just had my fourth... I'm hating this... I hope the humidifier helps! I have it plugged up and running, but I'm sure it won't take effect until tomorrow or so...
When I was in training my nose bled a lot.Are you getting enough sleep for the tissue to seal up completely?Are you perhaps, digging for gold unintentionally?Can you feel the scabs in your nose, and semi-consciously trying to get them to go away?Those are things that did it for me.
I've been staying up late, lately, but have been sleeping in due to the job situation, and have reversed it recently because of classes beginning again. So I've been trying to get some more sleep, hoping that might do it.If I have been digging for gold, I was either passed out, or really really out of it, so digging for gold is out of the question.I don't have an itch of a presence such as a scab inside of my nose, so I haven't been trying to get anything out.I've found out that it's been a thing in my family to happen. A cousin of mine went through it at a younger age, very younger (10-12) and he just grew out of it. So maybe I'm the same case, just a good bit older. Like I said before, there is no encouragement to it, it just starts bleeding. It might be stress related, right? If so, I know where it's coming from and it will be over as soon as January 12-14 rolls around.
Stress can come from anywhere. My Army Officer courses have gone over forms of standard non-combat stress situations, and stress can be good things as well as bad things. If you're overly excited, the same physiological effects can result as from Anxiety (though, with better results)Stress can also be subconscious. Something you know is there, but cannot put your finger on it. Perhaps schoolwork, worry about your parents, lifestyle, or things as small as losing 20 dollars can add various amounts of stress. Sometimes you're stressed and don't realize it, except by the physiological effects associated with it. Have you thought of taking a whole day to relax? Go out somewhere you can't be bothered? Vegetate for a while?And even if it isn't the cause of your nose bleeds, it can be beneficial to your health anyway, since stress tends to compile over time, and the holidays are generally full of it.
I'm sure that this competition that I'm training 14 others to compete in is the main thing... NONE WILL LISTEN!!! LOL. But seriously, I'll try doing that. I have to do some work Saturday while the temperature is supposed to be high, but Sunday, I will take to myself. Just go down to the lake with my ipod and walk... just relaxing... I haven't been able to do that in a looong time!!
i get them a lot too. if you take vasaline and rub it up in your nose it will help out (think vasaline on dry cracked lips). if your a nose breather at night i suggest you do it before bed.
Thanks you guys for all your help! I'm pretty sure that they've completely stopped... it hasn't happened for 2 days, so I've got my fingers crossed.If it does happen to spring up next time, I'll try the vaseline and saline solution (the table salt/water mixture) along with a humidifier, which is what I think stopped them.Thanks again for all your help! And if you do stumble across other ways to stop them, I wouldn't mind reading up on them!
This may be abit late to add but:I had the same issue when I was younger, just got nose bleeds all the time....at very inconvenient times.I just mentioned it to the doc next time I went and she put a cotton swab with some foul smelling acid crap on it up my nose to seal off the blood vesel responsible.Not had a problem since.
LOL!! The description if it doesn't sound pleasant, but next time I head to a doctor, I will surely mention what happened to ensure that it doesn't happen later on...and it's never too late to give medical advice!!
