How Can severe Nose Bleeds Be Treated?

Why I got nosebleed even if inside my nose has no abnormalities. What I mean is my nose is okay. It was 4 doctor's already who looked and checked but they said everything is okay inside. Last January I got nosebleed 4 times and February 4 times also. Once last March 1 2017. I'm confused. Thanks

Hello,
Thanks for trusting Healthcaremagic!
I have gone through your query and I can understand your concerns.
Epistaxis(Nose bleed) needs detailed evaluation to find out what exactly causing this problem.
I suggest you to consult an ENT specialist and get the following things done:-
(1)-Check your blood pressure level,hypertension is the most common cause for nasal bleed especially in elderly.
(2)- An anterior rhinoscopy(visual inspection of your nasal cavity) to rule out condition like polyps or other masses which can also cause nose bleeds.
(3)-Coagulation profile to rule out bleeding disorders.
If you develop nose bleed again apply ice packs and pinch your nose tightly for ten minutes.
Have healthy diet rich in fruits and vegetables.
Regards.
Dr.Shinas Hussain
