How to cure nose bleeding in children

Because children are young, they often suffer from various diseases or minor symptoms, which make parents very worried. Some children will have nosebleeds. Nosebleeds are because the nasal mucosa of children develops relatively slowly. Once the air outside is dry, nasal bleeding will occur. In severe cases, there is a problem with the child's body. Here we will introduce to you some methods to treat nose bleeding in children.

Nosebleed is called epistaxis in traditional Chinese medicine, and severe bleeding is called nose flooding. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, nosebleed is caused by "excessive heat" of the body. But this "fire" can be divided into two categories: real and virtual. The main symptoms of excess are heat in the lungs, stomach and liver. The fire property goes up and steams up along the meridians, damaging the blood vessels in the nose and causing bleeding. Deficiency syndrome is mostly caused by liver and kidney yin deficiency, which causes the rise of virtual fire, burning the nasal meridians and causing bleeding, or by weak spleen qi and inability of qi to control blood, causing bleeding.

Liver and stomach fire inflammation is often seen in overweight children, and is manifested by an irritable temper and easy loss of temper. The stones of such children are red and the tongue coating is yellow. In terms of Chinese patent medicine, you can take Niuhuang Jiedu Pills, buffalo horn concentrated powder, or use Xiasangju Granules to reduce heat.

Children with liver and kidney yin deficiency often get tired easily after activities, like to be held by adults, have a large amount of urine, and have difficulty urinating and defecating. The nosebleeds in these children can be treated with the Chinese patent medicines Liuwei Dihuang Pills and Zhibai Dihuang Pills. People with spleen deficiency and inability to retain blood are relatively thin and have a loss of appetite. The nosebleeds of these children can be treated with the Chinese patent medicines Guipi Pills, Renshen Yangrong Pills, and Shenqijing.

In addition, some dietary therapy methods can be used for effective prevention according to different situations.

For example, children with liver and kidney yin deficiency can usually eat local pond mullet cooked with black beans; children with hot rhinitis can drink fresh lotus root cooked with pig nose soup to treat the nose with "nose"; children with heat in the liver and stomach can drink summer cypress cooked with pig pancreas soup, as well as carrot and imperata root cooked with lean pork soup.

For those who suffer from exogenous wind-heat, that is, children who have nosebleeds after a wind-heat cold, pig lung soup with Adenophora Root, Lily Bulb and Southern Apricot Kernel is more suitable.

Due to changes in climate and environment, children nowadays are easily disturbed by dry evil in the nose and throat, causing burning sensation and inflammation. To protect the lung and nasal meridians, children should be given more yin-nourishing and dryness-removing drinks, such as fresh pear juice, fresh lotus root juice, fresh watermelon juice, honey water, etc.

This is our detailed introduction to treating children's nosebleeds. When a child has a nosebleed, parents should pay close attention to whether the child has other symptoms and whether the nosebleeds are frequent. If the nosebleed is occasional, parents should observe whether the air humidity at home is normal and let the child drink more water.
