Does nose bleeding has anything to do with eating too much meet?

Question

I ate lots of meet yesterday and my nose bled at night. I know it's caused by rupture of nose blood vessels but does it have to do with meat at all?? Or cold maybe???

Answer 1

I have searched the various webaddresses and have come to the conclusion that consumption of meat does not bear any correlation with nosebleeding.

(I) EPISTAXIS

Bleeding from the nose

Bleeding from inside the nose is a common complaint presenting an emergency. Epistaxis is often a frightening sight to the patient and the attendants, especially if the patient is a kid. There are a variety of causes which can lead to bleeding from the nose.

Local causes
Finger nail trauma due to excessive nose picking. This is the most common cause among the children.
Trauma to nose due to road traffic accident or being hit on the nose by a ball or fist.
Fracture of the nasal bones.
Infections
Viral rhinitis (infection of the nose).
Acute sinusitis
Others
Foreign bodies in nose
Deviation of the nasal septum
Atmospheric changes such as sudden movement to high altitudes.
Any growth in the nasal cavity, like polyps, benign or malignant tumors.
General Causes
Hypertension – commonly seen in old age
Heart diseases
Pregnancy
Bleeding disorders – when the patient has a deficiency in the system responsible for control of bleeding there is an abnormal tendency to bleed.
Drugs- like excessive use of analgesics for pain.
Acute general infections like typhoid, pneumonia, malaria, dengue fever, measles etc.
Idiopathic - at times the cause of bleeding may not be clear

(II) Nosebleed Injury: Causes

Sudden trauma to the nose, very cold or very dry air, fragile blood vessels, nasal sprays, strenuous exercise, or picking the nose cause most nosebleeds.
Recurrent nosebleeds may be a symptom of an underlying disorder such as high blood pressure, taking large doses of aspirin or blood-thinning medication, allergies, a bleeding disorder, or a tumor of the nose or sinuses.
Most nosebleeds come from blood vessels in the front of the nose. Some are caused by bleeding from the back of the nose into the throat (posterior bleeding) -- these are more difficult to control and almost always require medical attention.

Answer 5

I do not know of any connection between diet and nosebleeds. A lot of people go through a period of nosebleeds. However in a small number of cases nosebleeds can be related to problems of the blood or polyps in the nose. Therefore if the bleeds are frequent or cause the loss of very much blood it does not hurt to go to an MD or an APN for a blood test and an exam

Answer 6

You need green vegetables to avoid having a low vitamin K .

Vit K is needed for the blood to clot. If levels are low, your nose will bleed a long time.

Some other common causes of nose bleed: high blood pressure, liver disease (alcoholics, virus infections).

Let's just start with the QUESTION. "Does nose bleeding HAVE anything to do with eating too much MEAT?" Maybe an English/Grammar class would be good to start with, then my nose wouldn't bleed from the headache I get trying to decipher your sentences.

When doing cookies, bake half the batch and scoop the rest into ice-cube trays. When your sweet tooth kicks in, pop out one and bake it in order to meet your craving without breaking the particular calorie bank.

Answer 10

No, but if you have allergies, it could come from that as well as sinus problems. A cold if you have been blowing it a whole lot..Not meat no connection to the nose and digestion.

Answer 11

Nope.
