Bleeding from the nose is an unpleasant problem that occurs suddenly and can cause uncomfortable situations and confusion in the man whose nose bleeds. The reasons can be many. Some of them are harmless, but for others it is good to seek medical help because they are caused by certain medical conditions.
Dryness in the nasal mucosa
If the lining of the nose and upper airway is too dry due to prolonged periods of time in artificially air-conditioned rooms, dusty rooms and open areas, sudden bleeding may occur. Moisturizing the lining? helps to prevent cracking of small blood vessels due to excessive dryness.
Hit
In sports injuries, for example, bleeding from the nose may occur because the capillaries in this area are very thin and brittle. Their burst causes bleeding. The nose is very rich in blood supply and even a less severe stroke can cause bleeding.
Viruses and colds
Viral infections and colds most often cause nose obstruction due to accumulation of secretion in the lining of the nose. This tension along with blowing the nose causes enormous pressure on thin blood vessels. They can easily burst and cause bleeding from the nose.
High blood pressure
At high blood pressure, sudden bleeding from the nose may occur. Capillaries in the nose are weak and brittle and respond to strong internal pressure caused by elevated blood pressure.
Medicines
Some medications thin the walls of the blood vessels, causing bleeding from the nose. Such drugs are aspirin, warfarin, which dilutes blood.
Bacterial infections in the nose
In some bacterial infections in the nose, overgrowth of some mucosal-damaging microorganisms may occur. Also, such infections can cause mucosal lesions that cause the breakdown of blood vessels.
Entities
Within the nose, various benign and malignant formations, polyps, lumps, and wounds may form, which may also form the basis of nose bleeding. If you notice anything like this, consult a doctor immediately.
How do we recognize the danger?
In order to know if it is necessary to seek medical help immediately, it is good to learn to recognize where the bleeding is coming from. Typically, bleeding caused by dryness, viral infections, runny nose comes from the front of the nasal mucosa. While in bleeding caused by serious medical conditions it may come from the inner inferior part of the nose. It is, of course, difficult to learn to recognize that feeling alone. Consult a doctor to find out the cause of the problem.
