What Causes Nasal Congestion, Cold Sores And Weakness In The Body?

Hi,

Inflammation of the airways can cause bleeding to occur because the airway surface is irritated or inflamed. This means it is not common for bleeding to occur during a cold or if a person is prolonged allergies. Treatment would involve the use of antihistamine/decongestant combination of medication which would be over the counter that is zyrtec d, allegra d, claritine d, benadryl d.

A topical decongestant such as otrivine or normal saline can be used to help decrease the congestion. If there is any cough, then a cough suppressant can be added to reduce the cough that is dextromethorphan. This is also over the counter.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Michelle Gibson James
