Suggest Remedy For Nose Bleeds
My husband just showed me what appears to be a reddish collection of mucus in his nose. It does also look like it could be a vein. When he blows his nose his nose bleeds. Is this something he should work out on his own or should he seek medical attention

Hi Dear,
Welcome to HCM.
Understanding your concern. As per your query your husband have symptoms of nose bleeds which leads to accumulation of reddish collection of mucus in nose. which could be because of nasal infection such as polyp formation in nose and allergic rhinitis or rhinosinusitis. Need not to worry. I would suggest you to start with antihistamine medication levocetirizine + Montelukast combination at night to decrease it. Give him diet rich in multivitamins along with vitamin C pellet to booster immunity. You should avoid touching or picking nose. You should use mist humidifiers in room. Visit ENT specialist once and get it examined. Start treatment after complete examination. Get paranasal sinus X-ray done.
Hope your concern has been resolved.
Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
