I've been having these random nose bleeds about twice a month for the past 4 months while i sleep. And only from my right side. And now last night while i was sleeping i woke up and i was bleeding from my left side now. what can be the cause and how can i cure it.
Thanks for your query. I have gone through your query. Most commonly the bleeding from nose can occur secondary to trauma to the nose. Trauma to the outside of the nose, such as a blow to the face, or trauma inside the nose, such as nose picking or repeated irritation from a cold, can cause a nosebleed. The other possible causes can be systemic disease like bleeding disorders, hypertension or drugs like aspirin or warfarin can induce bleeding from nose. Abnormal blood vessels or cancers in the nose are rare causes of nosebleeds. Consult an ENT surgeon and get it evaluated. If the bleeding is anterior nose bleed it can be treated with pressure and pack or cautery. If it is a posterior nasal bleed you need to consult a ENT surgeon and get it treated by surgical procedures under aseptic conditions. I hope i have answered your query. Take care.
