ENT Specialist 's  Response
nose bleeding in viral fever may be related to dengue fever or chikengunya . if bleeding is severe then nasal packing should be done.. blood platelets count decreases, main cause for nasal bleed.. so FFP infusion is also needs to be done. adequate hydration should be maintained. and you should visit an ENT specialist nearby for proper check up.
