Suggest Treatment For Constant Nose Bleeding And Sore Gums

I have been having nosebleed almost everyday, especially in the morning for 3 weeks for only my right nostril. I have applied antibiotic ointment prescribed by my doctor for more than 1 week, but it did seem to help. Today, I also feel sore gums. What may be the problem? Thanks.

Hello,

Constant nose bleeding may be seen during the below mentioned conditions:
* Dry air — when your nasal membranes dry up, they are more susceptible to bleeding and infection
* Acute sinusitis
* Allergy
* Nasal polyps
* Aspirin use
* Bleeding disorders like hemophilia
* Foreign body in the nose
* Deviated septum
* Usage of blood thinning agents like Heparin and Warfarin

You need a thorough clinical examination in person by an ENT expert. Only then we can find out the exact cause and thus appreciate treatment. As it has been 3 weeks, you need to see the specialist as soon as possible.
Conditions of sore gums are:
* Allergic response to dental care products like tooth paste
* Tooth brush injury
* Gum ulcers
* Gingivitis or inflammation of gums
* Hormonal changes

Rinsing the mouth with salt water would help decrease the soreness in gums. Mouth wash would also help. Remove the allergen that's causing gum sore.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Pallavi M., Anesthesiologist
