  1. Nosebleeds are common and usually nothing to worry about. Some people are just more prone to getting nosebleeds than others.

    Are you on any medications such as; aspirin or warfarin (coumadin)? These are both blood thinning medications.

    If you are not on any blood thinning medicines, then I would suggest that you call your doctor and make an appointment. No need to go to the hospital unless you have a nosebleed that doesn't stop bleeding after 10 minutes.

    Most likely your doctor will examine your nose to make sure that you have been having anterior nosebleeds, and not posterior nosebleeds.

    He/she will maybe decide to cauterize your nose. This is just sealing the blood vessel that's been bleeding with a chemical called silver nitrate.

    It's a minor procedure with great results.

    Good Luck


  2. i used have nosebleeds all the time! eventually i just grew out of it.unless they're lasting over half an hour, you probably dont need to see a doctor. but if it'll make you feel better,go see one.by cure, do you mean get rid of forever, or just stop one at a time? i found i got them a lot because i was too warm. so ice on your forehead helps when you have one.everyone's different though.just tear off part of a kleenex roll it up and put it up there so you won't have to stay put with a bucket. you can walk around then. just change it when it gets to full.

  3. If you are having regular nose bleeds, you really do need to see your doctor about it as soon as possible.

    When you have one, sit in a chair and lean slightly forward, place an ice pack at the bridge of your nose for a few short minutes (no longer than 10 minutes). Do not blow your nose for at least 24 hours after the nose bleed has stopped.

  4. Nose bleeds are generally not serious.  Sometime a blood vessel just "pops", and that's it.

    BUT, frequent nosebleeds can be caused by other diseases, like diabetes, high blood pressure, kidney disease, liver disease, and diseases of the blood and blood cells.

    You should definately have this problem checked by the doctor.
