Hi, lately i have been finding that whenever i throw up my nose bleeds? I'm pretty sure this doesn't mean anything but want to check? I have also been experiencing muscle weakness after vomiting and stomach pains? Any help/explanation would be appriciated.

Hello, my name is Dr.Dorina Gurabardhi.
I understand your concern.
Vomit comes up the esophagus which is connected to the nose and the mouth. If there is enough force the vomit can come out of the nose and cause the nose bleed.
Some advices that I can give to you are:
-pinch the fleshy tip of the nose for 10 to 15 minutes while sitting forward
-Use saline nasal spray
Hope my answer is helpful.
Kind regards!
