Nose Bleeds (Epistaxis)

Nosebleeds, medically called epistaxis, are a common ENT problem where bleeding occurs from the nasal cavity. They may range from mild to severe and can affect both children and adults.

 

Dr. Sundar Dhungana provides thorough evaluation and effective treatment for nosebleeds, aiming to stop bleeding safely, identify underlying causes, and prevent recurrence.

Common Symptoms of Nosebleeds

You may be experiencing a nosebleed if you notice:

  • Sudden bleeding from one or both nostrils
  • Blood dripping into the throat
  • Feeling of nasal congestion or irritation before bleeding
  • Frequent or recurrent bleeding episodes
  • Lightheadedness or dizziness (in severe cases)

Persistent or severe nosebleeds should be evaluated promptly.
