Frequent nose bleeds in 3 year old…?

  • Posted on January 15, 2011 at 5:24 pm

Ok,so I moved last July and my daughter who was almost 3 at the time started get nose bleeds.I attributed it to a new house where the kids liked a fan blowing in their room at night.Figured she just had a dry nose.Well here we are in February and she still gets nose bleeds.She averages about 1 to 4 a month.I’ve had a vaporizer in their room at night for a month or two and it doesn’t seem to make a difference.She primarily gets them at night.Like last night she woke up at wanting a drink.Little while later here comes a bloody nose.Not little one, good drippers.I put a little tissue plug in to get it to stop,and when I pulled it out, there was a 2″ nasty bloody thing attached.Far bigger than any booger I’ve ever seen.There has only been a few times that were probably because she was picking,but all the other times really makes me wonder.I have a Dr. appointment for her,but am wondering if anyone has ever had this problem with there child.I’ve looked up what it could be,I’m a bit scared
I actually only moved about a mile down the road. So we haven’t changed climate or elevation. She doesn’t appear to have any allergies, and the vaporizer or humidifier (whatever you wanna call it) really puts a lot of moisture back in the air…so much so that I can actually feel the difference before I even get to their bedroom. I’m a bit perplexed and definately worried. I can’t help but think the worst, especially after I’ve looked up what it Could be. Ranges from practically nothing all the way up to leukemia. I guess all I can do is wait for her appointment on Friday at this point. Thank you everyone for all your helpful information!

Constant nose bleed help!?

  • Posted on January 10, 2011 at 5:24 am

My daughter, a 13 1/2 year old girl, constantly gets nose bleeds.
She doesn’t have a blood disorder[tested negative both times], she is healthy, and she drinks water a lot. Her nose used to bleed only from her right nostril, but now it’s coming from the left as well. It has been happening nearly everyday and it bled 3 times in the past 24 hrs.
She has a bus ride at least 30 minutes long each way and her school is very dry, as is her bus.
She has been having these spontaneous nose bleeds since she was young, and she even had her nose treated and got a camera stuck down it. Any ideas? Any help is loved!

There is blood in my daughter’s nose!?

  • Posted on September 1, 2010 at 3:26 am

My 4 year old has a cold, her nose has been running, her eyes have been watering. Yesterday she fell asleep around 2:00 and rested the whole day.

Between resting she ate oatmeal and drank juice.

I used a vaporizer and vicks rub to treat her.

This morning when she woke up there was a little blood in her nose, this has never happened. The blood is gone, it was only a little bit.

What should I do? I looked nose bleeds up and it says it can be caused by colds and dryness. She has a cold and it is super dry and hot in the house.

Any suggestions?
