What Is The Cause Of Blood In My Nostrils With Breast Cancer?

Hi
For the past few months I have noticed fresh blood in my nostrils-
I do not get nose bleeds but this blood is there every day.

I have just been diagnosed with breast cancer, and Im wondering if this may be the reason for the fresh blood in my nose.

I would appreciate your ideas.

Thank you Dr.

cheers

Normally recently diagnosed early breast cancer should not cause this problem.
This problem may arise if the disease is very advanced and has invaded bone marrow.
May be you have nasal inflammation or dry nose. Wipe your nose and apply liquid paraffin in your nostrils and your complaint will get redressed.
