What Could Cause Nose Bleed During Weight Training?
Hello, Im on a diet whilst weight training, where I currently uptake 2600 calories per day and split this into a percentage of 40% carbohydrates, 40% protein and 20% fats. I have never had nose bleeds in the past, but recently I have had two nose bleeds. I was wondering what could be the cause? Is it to due to iron-rich food, high protein diet?
Hi. During the weight lifting the blood pressure rises momentarily causing he blood vessels to rupture , particularly in the nose which do not have food mucosal support. I would advise you to visit an ENT surgeon who would endoscopy and coagulate the bleeding points. Check your blood pressure too .
