Suggest Treatment For Frequent Nose Bleeding In Kids
My son`s age is 4 years and 2 months. Since last three days, my son had a total of 5 times nose bleeding. Making pressure in the bridge of the nose stops the bleeding effectively. We are really so worried, is it categorized into frequent nose bleeding? Is it a symptom of any deadly disease? If not even, is there any scope to be uncontrolled nose bleeding while sleeping? Would you please answer it soon?

Hello. I just read through your question.
What you are describing is NOT a sign of any deadly disease. Nosebleeds in kids happen most often because the mucosa get dry and kids have a habit of picking their noses. in certain cases, the mucosa can be cauterized by an ENT doctor. this is painless. I recommend consulting with your doctor about this option.
