Suffering From Asthma And Sinus. Started Bleeding Nose. What Should I Do?
My nose starts bleeding sometimes though not much. I am asthmatic and have sinus issues since an early age. Noses are mostly congested and very allergic to dust. Now im in my thirties and started with nose bleeds . I assume its due to my allergies and blowing nose most of the time. Please confirm if im right. My email id is YYYY@YYYY Thanks.

Hi thanks for your question.
Nasal congestion,blocked nose are common in asthamatics and get precipatated by allergies.
Epistaxsis is common in rhinitis that is infection of nose.
If bleeding is less there is nothing to worry.You need nasal decongestant ,antihistiminics and addationally you may also need antibiotics.
Nasal trauma due to nose pricking is common precipatating factor.Avoid that.
In case of sever bleeding please consult ER
Hope this answers your question.
