Nose Bleeding?

Have you experienced nose bleeding folks? I remember one of my officemate before he always had specially if it is too much hot. So , I tried searching about it and according to what I read it varies in different weather conditions. Not much serious but still need to be very careful.

Causes:

  • Trauma to the nose (nose picking, foreign bodies, forceful nose blowing).
  • The most common cause of a nose bleed is drying of the nasal membranes.
  • Tumors, particularly malignant tumor of the nose or sinuses.
  • The incidence of nosebleeds is higher during the colder winter months when upper respiratory infections are more frequent, and the temperature and humidity fluctuate more dramatically.
  • Use of "blood thinning medications" called anti coagulants.
  • Recurrent nosebleeds may be a symptom of an underlying disorder such as high blood pressure.
  • Inflammation of the nose or sinuses and cold may cause a nose bleed.
  • Deviated septum (when the partition between your nose is crooked), foreign objects in the nose, or other nasal obstruction may also cause nosebleeds.
    Symptoms
  • Bleeding from one or both nostrils.
  • Frequent swallowing.
  • Sensation of fluid flow in the back of the nose and throat.
