Started Worked Out With Elliptical. Nose Starts Bleeding. Is This Normal?

I have been walking for a week now. Sunday and Monday night I went to the gym and worked out on the elliptical. On Monday I did the whole thirty minute workout. When I got through my nose started bleeding . I didn t do anything yesterday. And this morning while on my bus route my nose bled two different times. Is this normal?

Hi,
Thanks for writing to HCM.

There are possibilities that the nose bleeds due to body heat or excessive workout causing due to any rupture of tissues. However, considering that its bled more than once, it would be better to see a doctor and take the required treatment. With regards to diet, avoid fattu foods and include lots of protein for tissue building and lots of vitamins and minerals to increase resistance.

Good luck to you!!!
