What Causes Bloody Nose In A Kid?
My 4 year old seems to have a cold. I don t know if it s allergies but it seems more a cold. Stuffy nose, and a cough, esp in the middle of the night. The past 2 days I ve noticed dried blood in his nose. Yesterday I took him to the dr with pink eye. Tonight he had a real bloody nose. Does this seem like a cold. Should I worry about the bloody nose?

you don't need to worry much. Just basic precaution that kid doesn't irritate nasal mucosa frequently. its just a superficial bleeding and it ll heal automatically if there is no continuous irritation. it seems like cold only.
