Nose Bleeding From Both Nostrils For Many Years. Continues After Cauterization. Clotting Factors And Haemoglobin Is Fine. Cause For Recurring Bleeding?
I ve had nose bleeds since I was 2 years old. I am now 16 and the problem is still here. I bleed out of both nostrils and have been caughterized twice. My last caughterization was in November.I am still heavily bleeding . To me, one persons bad is my good. My clotting factors and haemoglobin is fine, much like the rest of my blood work. What could be a potential cause for them to keep coming back?

hi, one of the most common causesof bleeding from nose is continuous finger nail trauma.so if u arehaving this habit then stop it.The other causes can be like nasopharyngeal angiofibroma or any mass in nose and nasopharynx. for that to rule out u have to do a diagnostic nasal endoscopy.
