Bleeding from nose
My son is 5.7 years old. From last 15 - 16 days his nose is bleeding. It is occurring 3,4 or 7 days interval. Bleeding lasts for few minutes and automatically stops. It is always from his left nose. No pain or irritation. For last two years he has this problem but it was not frequent. Nowadays it is becoming frequent like wise. He is not picking his nose. What needs to do?

Regards! Though being little’s area of face, highly supplied with blood vessels, kids this age are likely to bleed from nose without having any disease. But it still should be considered diagnosis of exclusion after ruling out local pathology like polyps, atrophic rhinitis even adenoiditis sometimes. Kindly get a physical examination done.
