Suggest Remedy For Intermittent Nose Bleeds
I am treating intermittent nose bleeds the last two days with Boroleum, packing , and light pressure. I have also maintained a cooler lighter mostly liquid diet. My nose is still bleeding when I remove the packing. I normally take a Claratin and Naproxen daily for allergies and associated symptoms; my last dose was 6 PM 11/28. What else can I do to stop the nose bleeds?

Hi,
It seems that due to some infection there might be having soreness and congestion in nasal cavity producing bleeding.
Do not try to clear nose with forceful sneezing or removing crusts.
Put decongestant nasal drops like Otrivin nasal drops.
Go for your blood pressure checking as many a time rise in BP might cause bleeding.
Ok and take care.
