What Causes Nose Bleed After A Fall?
My daughter fell down the stairs and her nose was bleeding. She says she hit the top of her head but I m not sure. She cried for about 5 minutes and her nose bleed for maybe 5min. Max. She seems to be doing fine she is super happy and playing now. What should I look out for and should I take her to urgent care or her Dr office?

Hello,
The nose bleeding after a fall is probably related to the trauma. You should keep applying pressure and use an ice pack for local application. I also suggest to see your doctor to evaluate the damage from the trauma.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
