Does Recurring Nose Bleed Need Medical Attention?
My son who is 23 years old has been experiencing frequent nosebleeds. These have been occurring usually in the morning and have come and gone for the last month. There is a small amount of blood on his tissue, but it is not dripping by any means. He is in excellent shape and has not had a cold or illness recently. Is this something that he should see a doctor for?

Hi,
Yes, recurring nose bleed from your son definitely need medical attention. Most probably it may be due to the nose prick injury but to rule out other disease your son may go for
1. Anterior and posterior rhinoscopy.
2. Blood Pressure measurement and
3. Bleeding profile.
Thanks
