Nose bleed during winter

2022-01-19 07:43:35
Hello respected Doctors, Greetings to all. My Dad is 70 yrs old with no history of hypertension and thyroid. Past three days his nose is bleeding in clots whenever he takes out the slimy cough mucus. He is diabetic and his diabetes is under control. Recent HBA1C is 5.9. It's quite cold where we are. My Father hasn't faced this nose bleed problem ever before. His blood pressure is 120/70. Pls advise what to do? Thank You
