What Does Dried Blood Discharge From The Nose Indicate?
Hi I ve noticed that everytime I wake up in the morning and every time I blow my nose throughout the day that dried blood and also what looks like small pieces of skin are coming out as well. This has been happening for about a month and hasn t gone away. At first I thought it was because I was sick and was blowing my nose a lot plus I sleep with a heater and it could ve been making my nose dry but it hasn t gone away. And I don t know how to explain the fact that skin is coming out of my nose.
It could be due to minor mucosal abrasions. As of now, you can use saline nasal drops. If symptoms persist better to consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated.
