Nosebleed

Nosebleed, medically known as epistaxis, refers to the condition where bleeding occurs from the inner lining of the nose. It is a fairly common occurrence with various causes and severity levels.

In most cases, nosebleeds arise from trauma or irritation to the delicate blood vessels in the nasal passages, such as from dry air, frequent nose blowing, or excessive picking.

However, they can also signal underlying health conditions like high blood pressure, nasal allergies, or even blood clotting disorders.

Treating a nosebleed usually involves simple self-care measures like pinching and leaning forward to prevent blood from entering the throat.

If frequently experienced or accompanied by other concerning symptoms like fainting or difficulty breathing, seeking professional medical help is crucial for a proper diagnosis and management plan tailored to each individual’s needs.
