What causes nosebleeds in children? Parents, please pay attention…

Question 1: My child had a fever and nosebleeds in the middle of the night. He took anti-fever medicine and the fever has subsided. However, the nosebleeds continue. He used absorbent cotton to stop the nosebleeds, but the nosebleeds are still there after taking them away. What should I do? I used to have nosebleeds, sometimes a little, but today I have a lot of nosebleeds, and I have a fever and nosebleeds, which makes me a little worried. Dr. Luo Zhen’s answer: You can check the baby’s blood routine and coagulation function. If there are no problems with the test results, problems with the blood itself can be ruled out. Common causes of bleeding are dry and sensitive nasal mucosa and nose picking (recurrent small amounts of bleeding are related to erosion of the nasal vestibule mucosa). Daily care suggestions: ① If the indoor air is dry, use a humidifier to maintain a certain humidity. ② Try not to let your baby pick his nose. If your baby often picks his nose, it may be caused by allergies, that is, it may be allergic rhinitis rather than sinusitis. ③ When nosebleeds occur, don’t panic first. You can stuff a tissue or cotton ball into the bleeding nose and press to stop the bleeding. Use a wet towel or ice cubes to apply ice to your forehead and neck. This method can be used for small amounts of bleeding. Stop bleeding. You can also apply erythromycin or spray physiological sea salt nasal spray. Question 2: My baby has bronchial asthma once when he is one year and ten months old. Now he is wheezing when he catches cold. How can I cure it? Dr. Cui Lixia answered: The child may be allergic to cold air. The best way is to try not to get cold and add or remove clothes in time. Try not to go out when it is cool or windy in the morning and evening. If you go out, wear a mask and avoid contact with patients. Question 3: My child is 13 months old and hiccups all the time. Sometimes it feels like he is full, and other times it feels like he has not swallowed anything. What is going on? Dr. Zhu Xiwei’s answer: It’s gastric bloating or acid indigestion. In this case, you should eat less and reduce the amount of breast milk and supplementary food. You can take Chicken Neijin Powder or Pediatric Hulu Powder.
