What is the cause of nosebleed in children's right nose?

If you have a nosebleed on the right side, you need to pay attention to the analysis of the cause, such as a common cold, which leads to a decrease in resistance, or an itchy or blocked nose. Some people are in the habit of picking their noses with their hands. These may be the reasons, especially for children.

1. Children with colds - Because colds can reduce the resistance of the nasal mucosa, and the symptoms of colds (nasal congestion, runny nose, nasal pus, etc.) can cause children to do things that directly harm the nasal mucosa (such as blowing their nose hard, picking their nose, etc.), making them prone to nosebleeds.

2. Children suffering from nasal allergies - due to itchy, runny nose, and nasal congestion, they often pick their noses, which causes the nasal mucosa to be frequently injured and bleed.

3. Children who have the habit of picking their noses with their fingers - Frequent picking of the nose causes the entrance of the nose and the nasal vestibule to be repeatedly injured and scabbed. When stained with nasal mucus, the children will pick their noses uncontrollably, creating a vicious cycle. Over time, the entrance of the nose and the vestibule will become ulcerated and prone to bleeding. ?

4. Children with blood diseases - although these children's noses are not injured, they often have nosebleeds. The flow rate is usually slow, but the frequency is very frequent. This type of nosebleed is often caused by blood diseases. If this happens, you must go to the hospital immediately for a blood test to be on the safe side. ?

5. Parents should not panic when seeing heavy bleeding. It is best to immediately press the nostrils on both sides with the thumb and middle finger at the same time to compress the bleeding area and stop the bleeding. Release your hand after about five minutes to see if the bleeding has stopped. If bleeding continues, repeat pressing the nostrils for another five to ten minutes. This will usually stop the bleeding. If not, you must immediately seek emergency treatment from an ENT doctor. ?

6. When many parents see their children bleeding from the nose, they often stuff toilet paper or cotton into the child's nasal cavity in an attempt to stop the bleeding. However, the bleeding often fails due to insufficient pressure or the wrong location. At this time, parents often let the child lie down flat, thinking that this can help stop the bleeding. In fact, this is not appropriate, because once the child lies down, the nosebleed that was originally flowing out will flow back into the mouth and throat, making it difficult for the child to breathe, or swallow a large amount of blood, which will irritate the stomach wall and cause vomiting with blood, which will make the parents panic. ?
