Why do I have chronic heavy nose bleeds?

Patient's Query

I’m having Frequent nose bleeds. I’ve had them since a child. Even a slight touch inside the nose will cause a nose bleed or even if soemthing hits my nose gently it bleeds. The nose bleeds lasts for about 10/15 minutes per time and it’s a heavy nose bleed. I have my septum pierced and it only bleeds from the left nostril but even before I had the piercing it kept bleeding. I coughed the other day and it started bleeding and I even woke up and it started bleeding

Ent Surgery

Answered by Dr. Babita Goel

Your nose issue is a nasal septum deviation. That means your nose's middle part is off-center. One nostril's blood vessels are more exposed, causing bleeding. The piercing might worsen it. To reduce nosebleeds, keep your nose moist with saline solution. Don't pick or rub your nose. Consider visiting an ENT expert for evaluation and treatment.

After a week I started tk have a sore throat again. Now my right side of my mount is droopy. What vould be wrong ?

Female | 21

Sounds like the previous infection has not cleared completely or there is a second viral infection that has come on. We also need to see why the frequency is so high despite medications. Kindly visit an ENT surgeon.

Sore throat, severe pain when swallowing, the pain is constant, started 4 days ago with a headache, a fever and sore throat, the fever and headache went away but the throat pain got progressively worse i would describe it as sharp pain, i am on 5 types of medicine including ibuprofen but nothing works, i also tried gargles and all sorts of remedies and the do not work as well

Male | 18

You may have an acute tonsillitis infection. When the tonsils become infected with viruses or bacteria this frequently occurs. The fever and headache you experienced are common symptoms of this condition. Since taking medication has not helped, it is necessary to get a proper diagnosis from an ENT specialist. This will enable them to prescribe stronger antibiotics which should make you feel well. Do not forget to drink plenty of water and have enough bed rest.

I have yellow mucus since 7 days medicine does not treat me i don't know what to do it irritates me too much so give me any treatment or any medicine

Female | 15

If you have yellow mucus for more than 7 days and it doesn't get better with medication, it's likely a sinus infection. You might feel lousy, with headaches or facial pressure too. To help clear it up, try using a humidifier, drink plenty of water, and use a saline nasal spray. But if it persists or worsens, see an ENT specialist.

Dear Sir / Ma'am Pain in the throat whenever i wake up in the morning.mouth taste is also bitter .Sometimes blood also comes.

Male | 30

Pain in the throat and a bitter taste in the mouth can be signs of an underlying infection, such as a throat infection or tonsillitis. It is also possible that the symptoms are due to other causes, such as acid reflux or allergies. If you experience this symptom on a regular basis, it would be best to consult with your doctor for a proper diagnosis and treatment plan. Your doctor may suggest further tests, such as blood tests, throat swabs, or imaging tests, to determine the cause of your symptoms.

I have pain while swallowing

Female | 25

This could happen because of a sore throat or infection. Other possibilities are acid reflux or swallowing something sharp accidentally. If it continues for several days, getting it checked is wise. Warm drinks or soft foods might provide relief. Staying hydrated by drinking plenty of water is crucial too. Take a break from spicy or rough textures until it passes.

I'm facing ear blocking issue can u please suggest cure

Female | 25

You feel like your ear is blocked, perhaps from wax buildup. It also occurs with sinus infections or altitude shifts during travel. Try ear drops first to loosen the wax, and tilt your head to drain it. If the blockage persists, see a doctor for an exam. Earwax often causes this issue, but sinus problems and altitude changes can too. Over-the-counter ear drops may clear wax buildup. Gently tilt your head after using drops, allowing drainage. However, if discomfort continues, visit an ENT specialist.

Fluid comes out from ear three/four time in a day

Female | 81

Fluid escaping your ear frequently might signify an ear infection named otitis externa. Earache, itchiness, and muffled hearing are typical symptoms. The wise action is avoiding inserting objects in your ear and maintaining dryness. Should the issue persist, consulting an ENT specialist for proper treatment could be necessary.

Female | 26

Maybe your nasal symptoms suggest chronic rhinosinusitis. Thick, dark reddish-brown mucus can flow uncontrollably, often worse at night. Inflamed sinuses likely cause this issue. Saline sprays may provide relief. Consulting an ENT doctor helps evaluate and treat the underlying problem.

You have a peritonsillar abscess problem based on your statement. The condition occurs when an infection causes pus formation in the vicinity of your tonsils.

You may be dealing with an ear infection. The germs, whether they are bacteria or viruses, infect your ear and cause a lot of pain, swelling, and even a sensation of blockage in your ear. Sometimes the pain may also radiate to your jaw and neck. Consulting an ENT specialist will enable you to obtain the correct treatment, primarily antibiotics for the infection.

Sinusitis congestion and very sever problems like

Male | 17

Sinusitis commonly occurs after one has had a cold or due to allergies. To relieve these symptoms you can do steam inhalation using hot water, saline nasal spray that helps moisten the inside of your nose so they’re less likely to dry out, and over-the-counter decongestants like pseudoephedrine (Sudafed). If this is bothersome, visit an ENT specialist.

My boy is of 12 years and he is having tonsils in his neck… there is normal tonsils Madicine has finished

Male | 12

Your son has enlarged tonsils, he slows down when sick. These can make the throat hurt, make it hard to swallow, or even block some air. Helping him stay comfortable might include giving him lots of things to drink and soft things to eat. Make a doctor’s appointment if he seems very uncomfortable or it’s hard for him to breathe.

Many people notice a watery discharge and worry it might be cerebrospinal fluid (CSF), but it’s not always the case. Sometimes, blowing your nose can cause this. Keep an eye on any new symptoms or changes, and if you're concerned, it's best to see an ENT specialist for a check-up.

It's great that Setzine is helping you manage your symptoms, but for a more permanent solution, it's important to identify and avoid the triggers causing your nasal allergy.
