What causes nosebleeds while bathing?

The nose is an organ that is very prone to bleeding. The most common time for nosebleeds is just after getting up in the morning. Many people will find that their noses are particularly dry and prone to bleeding in the morning. This is because after a night's sleep, the water in the body has evaporated and the air is very dry, which can cause instability in the nasal blood vessels and lead to bleeding. Another situation is when taking a shower. What causes nosebleeds?

The nasal mucosa is easily damaged and blood coagulation is poor in a high temperature and high humidity environment. Even mildly strenuous activity can cause a nosebleed. This symptom should be treated as soon as possible to confirm the diagnosis and provide symptomatic treatment.

There are many reasons for nosebleeds, including nasal trauma, dry scabs on the mucous membrane, damage from acid and alkali foreign bodies, excessive sun exposure, excessive drinking, etc. Frequent nosebleeds are a complication of the cardiovascular system, internal organs, various infections, blood diseases and other diseases. Many people often think that nosebleeds are caused by problems with the nose itself, but this is actually a bit of a superficial treatment. Frequent nosebleeds should be diagnosed dialectically. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that nosebleeds are caused by the upward flow of qi and blood. The nose belongs to the orifice of the lungs. Generally speaking, any nasal disease is closely related to abnormalities in the lungs, liver and other parts of the body. When a person's Qi and blood rise, especially when the lung Qi is hot, the person will have a nosebleed. When the lung qi is overheated, blood or bleeding may occur in the fundus of the eyes. The causes of getting angry and nosebleed are the same, both are the result of the upward flow of Qi and blood, and can be treated with the Chinese medicine prescription Qili Decoction. Qili Decoction is an ancient Chinese medicine recipe that has a good regulating effect on symptoms such as nosebleeds caused by kidney yin deficiency and liver fire. It can regulate the symptoms fundamentally, and can also be ground into powder and brewed into tea for drinking. How to stop a nosebleed? When a nosebleed occurs, most people are accustomed to tilting their heads back with their nostrils pointing upwards. This is not only difficult to stop the bleeding, but the backward posture will also cause the blood that has already flowed out of the nasal cavity to flow backwards to the throat due to the posture and gravity, and will be swallowed into the esophagus and gastrointestinal tract, irritating the gastrointestinal mucosa to cause discomfort or vomiting. When the amount of bleeding is large, it is easy to be inhaled into the trachea and lungs, causing danger. Correct method: Maintain a normal upright or slightly forward leaning posture and apply pressure to stop the bleeding. Even if there is a small amount of blood clot blocking the nasal cavity, it doesn't matter, the coagulation substances in the blood clot can help the blood coagulate. Blowing it out in a hurry can easily lead to rebleeding. Of course, if the amount of bleeding is heavy, seek medical attention immediately.

There are local causes and systemic factors that cause nosebleeds: trauma and inflammation, nose picking, sneezing, surgical injuries; maxillofacial trauma, nasopharyngeal lesions, hypertension, coagulation dysfunction, liver disease, endocrine disorders, vitamin deficiency, bacterial infection, etc. can all cause nosebleeds. It cannot be ruled out that it is caused by overnutrition and inflammation. After observing for a few days, if this situation still exists, you can go to the hospital for a check-up because you are in a special period.

Nosebleeds may be caused by dry air, which makes the nasal mucosa dry, fragile, and prone to bleeding. You can go to the hospital to get some paraffin oil or peppermint oil to apply to your nasal cavity, or you can ask a doctor to check and burn the blood vessels in your nasal cavity to avoid frequent bleeding. A blood test should also be done to check for any blood system diseases. See the ENT doctor to see if there is a deviated nasal septum, etc. You should drink more water, eat more vegetables and avoid pinching your nose.
