Could nose bleeds be serious?


Question:
I am very concerned for my husband,he has been having nose bleeds almost daily for a few months. He does work outside in the heat, but he has them when he is at home too. He can be just sitting in the chair doing nothing and it will start bleeding.Is this just from the humidity or should I be concerned that it is something more and make him see a dr?

Answers:
A *daily* nosebleed is not something to just to laugh off... especially if it's a "severe" nosebleed. It might just be associated with the humidity (it's too dry in your house) - but I'd contact a doctor and have him examined.
he might be dehydrated

take him to a doctor so you can know for sure!
not to scare you but that is one of the symptoms of leukemia look it up and go to the doctor and get blood test for CBC k as soon as you can
there can be some serious conditions which nosebleeding is a sign
It seems to have a lot to do with the humidity. You could use a moisturizing gel you can get over the counter, or get a humidifier inside of the house, or for the bedroom. Drink a lot of water as well. If it consist, I would go see a doctor.
Recurring nosebleeds aren't good - if its not a serious health issue a doctor can cauterize the nose tissue to prevent future bleeding.
check his blood pressure and have him use saline nasal spray...
he needs to go to the doctor.
Yes that is something that needs to be checked out , unusual bleeding or discharge is one of the signs of CANCER
A nose bleed can be as simple as dry air being the cause or as complicated as being a sign of cancer. The only real way of knowing the extent of the situation, as with any medical question, is a physical examination in conglameration with a family and patient history. The doctor may decide to have some blood drawn. This can show if he has normal levels of the differing blood cells. Unfortunately, there is no simple yes or no to this question. I do strongly advise him to obtain a physical exam.
Perhaps he has weak blood vessels. High blood pressure or sinus problems could be another cause.

Citrus bioflavonoids will strengthen your blood vessels.
