Various parts of a child's body continue to develop after birth, for example, some children may experience frequent nosebleeds, and long-term nosebleeds may affect the healthy development of the body. So my mother is also more concerned about this phenomenon, but she doesn't understand the relevant knowledge about nosebleeds. So, what tests should be done for children with frequent nosebleeds?
Frequent nosebleeds in children may be due to their thin nasal mucosa. It is best to go to the hospital and see a doctor to confirm whether it is a problem with the thin nasal mucosa. The doctor will provide protective advice after examination. Usually, mothers should also pay attention to telling their children not to rub their noses too hard, especially when the air is dry.
If the doctor checks the normal nasal mucosa, it may be due to respiratory tract infection or rhinitis. For respiratory tract infection, relevant items of the respiratory tract should be checked to see if there is any infection, so as to determine the cause of bleeding and provide targeted treatment. However, some of them are caused by the nasal cavity itself, such as children with deviated nasal septum who are prone to spontaneous bleeding.
When faced with a child's nosebleed, a mother should take appropriate measures to stop the bleeding based on the amount of bleeding. If the blood volume is low, you can directly insert a cotton ball into the nasal cavity for 5-10 minutes. The blood will automatically coagulate, and then clean the nose with saline solution. After cleaning the nose, you can apply ointment. The specific ointment to be applied needs to be guided by a doctor after examination.
