Hi, welcome to healthcaremagic.com.
Brief answer
- yes it could be related
Detailed answer
Adenoidectomy has some minor complications like sore throat, earache, blocked nose, nasal discharge. Bleed from nose could have occured due to sore throat and blocked nose. However, most of these symptoms are temporary and they subside in 3 to 4 weeks. I think you should get her examined by the operative Surgeon. I hope this has helped you. Wishing your child good health. Take care.
