What are the causes of frequent nosebleeds?

In life, it is inevitable to accidentally touch the nose. Since the capillaries in the nasal cavity are densely distributed, sensitive and fragile, it often causes nose bleeding. In fact, there are many reasons for nosebleeds, but most people cannot find the real reason for nosebleeds. So what causes frequent nosebleeds?

1. Local reasons:

(1) The nose is injured or hit, or the nose is picked too deep or too hard.

(2) The nasal septum is curved or has ridges or calcarine processes. Because the local mucosa is thin, it is easy to bleed after being stimulated by air.

(3) People with acute rhinitis or atrophic rhinitis are prone to bleeding.

(4) In some cases, bleeding is caused by tumors of the nasal cavity, paranasal sinuses, or nasopharynx, such as hemangiomas, malignant tumors, etc.

2. Systemic reasons:

(1) Excessive arterial pressure, such as hypertension and arteriosclerosis.

(2) Increased venous pressure, such as mitral stenosis, pulmonary edema, etc.

(3) Suffering from acute febrile infectious diseases, such as upper respiratory tract infection, influenza, etc.

(4) Blood diseases, such as leukemia, hemophilia, various purpura, etc.

(5) Liver, spleen and rheumatism.

(6) Poisoning by phosphorus, arsenic, benzene, etc. can destroy the function of the hematopoietic system and cause bleeding.

(7) Compensatory menstruation.

3. Hemostasis methods

(1) Stopping bleeding from the gums also stops nosebleeds

When your nose is bleeding, pinching your nose and leaning back is a very effective method. However, a simpler and more effective method is to hold some cotton against your upper gums. Because most nosebleeds are caused by ruptured blood vessels in the front of the nasal septum. Simply pressing cotton to this area can effectively control nose bleeding.

(2) Unique method to stop nosebleeds

Hooking your middle finger can quickly stop nosebleeds. Just hook the middle fingers of both hands together and the bleeding can be stopped within tens of seconds. If a child cannot hook his or her middle fingers together, the adult can hook his or her own middle fingers around the child's left and right middle fingers to stop the bleeding.

In addition, sesame oil can also prevent and treat nosebleeds. Every night before going to bed, dip a cotton swab in some sesame oil and apply it to the inner wall of the nostrils. When applying, it is best to slowly move towards the back of the nose, especially the nasal septum, because this area is rich in blood vessels, the mucous membrane is very thin, and it is easy to bleed.

(3) Food can also treat nosebleeds

Collect the egg whites of two eggs, add 50 grams of white sugar, mix well, cook with boiling water, eat it all at once, and take twice a day. This prescription is suitable for nose bleeding in children.

Leek juice: 250 grams of leeks, mash them to extract the juice, and drink it warm in 3 doses. Taking this recipe regularly is effective for people who suffer from frequent nosebleeds. Onion leaves: Cut open a fresh and tender onion leaf, rub the inner membrane of the onion leaf repeatedly with a cotton ball to allow the onion juice to soak the cotton ball, then stuff the cotton ball into the bleeding nostril to stop the bleeding.
