Any one ever have a nose bled more than twice a week. Do you know whats causing it and how do I stop it?

Answer 1

Potassium deficiency

Answer 2

Yea I used to get a lot of nose bleeds when the air was dry in my house - it mostly happened at night. Try getting a humidifyer for your room. If you keep getting nose bleeds, deffinatly go see a doctor about it - its shocking how much blood you can loose from a tiny scratch in your nose, and there might be something more serious - so better safe than sorry.

Answer 3

It could be high blood pressure.

Tips:

If the air is dry, use a humidifier in your bedroom to keep the nose from drying out.
Apply petroleum jelly to the center wall (septum) inside the nose twice daily to reduce cracking and to promote healing.
Avoid blowing the nose.
Avoid touching your nose and nose picking.
Do not take aspirin or other anti-inflammatory medications (e.g. ibuprofen, Advil, Motrin, Aleve), unless you have been instructed to by your physician.
