What Causes Nasal Bleeding?
I have been having continuous nose bleeds in my right nostril every other day since April. I looked up my nose and it looks like I see a polyp in my right nostril. I have tried taking antihistamine to help with the bleeding and it has. But as soon as I don t take it the bleeding returns. What shall I do?

I understand your concern.
The cause of nose bleeding should be investigated and treated.possible causes may include:
-foreign object stuck in the nose or growth as you describe
-Dry air
-chemical irritants
-allergic reaction
-injury to the nose
-repeated sneezing
-picking the nose
-cold air
-High BP
-upper respiratory infection
-large doses of aspirin
Just see the ENT specialist for examination.Your blood pressure should also be checked.
Hope this will help.You may write back if more concerns.
