Suggest Treatment For Kidney Infection
hello! ive been having constant nose bleeds for the two days i have been out of the hospital for a major kidney infection. They gave me two shots of blood thinner in the abdomen during my three day stay. my nose bleeds last over half an hour and produce quite a bit of blood. Im on my fifth one today and am wondering if this is normal or not?

dear
bleeding per nose might be related to the blood thinners .
How ever at initial stage we can try for a ice cold compress over nose with a cotton or gauze pack and positioning your self in bed.
However it is important, if this bleeding prolongs and we need to check for the vitals, and need a consultation,as there might be other underlying causes aswell.
hope this helps
most welcome for further queries.
