Nosebleed
Reviewed by the medical team of El Doctor Editorial policy
A nosebleed, also known as epistaxis, is the flow of blood from the nose and may originate in the small vessels at the front or, less commonly, in deeper areas.
Common causes: It is usually related to dryness of the mucous membrane, cold or dry air, minor trauma from blowing or scratching the nose, and certain nasal conditions.
When should you see a doctor? Episodes that recur frequently, are very heavy, or are hard to stop warrant an evaluation.
Which specialist treats it? The otolaryngologist is the right professional to investigate the causes of a nosebleed and examine the nose in detail. If the bleeding becomes frequent or worries you, it is advisable to see a doctor to identify the reason.
