nosebleeds

[Saph]

does anyone get them?

I've had 2 in the last week for no reason and I've never had one before :umm2: dunno whether to go to a doctor

[Drew.]

I've only ever had 2 and they were from being elbowed playing football. Would be quite worried if I'd never had then naturally and then suddenly started getting them though?

[Kate!]

I get them fairly often when the weather is humid. Or if I have a bad cold. It's usually just swollen membranes in the nose, and nosebleeds are triggered easily as a result.

If you are concerned though get checked out.

I've only had nosebleeds from being hit in the face...I think some people get them more than others.

[smudgie]

I would not worry too much.
However, if you show any signs of sudden bruising as well as the nosebleeds then seek medical help immediately.

i used to never get them, then the summer when i was going into high school i got loads

now i get them in times when im stressed out, so like i wont have any for months but as soon as im stressed a lot ill get them like all the time for about a week or so

i once had loads when i was on holiday and it was awful :( even had one on the flight back which is probs the worst ive ever had, they asked if we wanted an emergency landing in Paris :laugh2:

It's tough in Manchester...

Used to get them a lot for a couple of years before and after i'd had some pretty invasive surgery.
And once when I broke my nose in football.
But haven't had them for years.
They usually occur in non-sufferers in the summer. So it wouldn't hurt to get it checked out.

Used to get them often as a kid, not had one lately. 12+ years ago was my last probably.
