Now is the peak season for respiratory diseases, and runny nose is a common symptom in babies. However, when runny nose is accompanied by blood streaks, mothers cannot help but worry. So, what is the reason for blood streaks in babies' noses?
1. Due to the delicate nature of the baby's nasal mucosa, if the climate is relatively dry, it is easy to cause dryness in the nasal cavity, which can lead to increased permeability of capillaries in the nasal cavity, congestion and edema of the nasal mucosa, and thus easily result in blood streaks during runny nose. Mothers should pay attention to changes in environmental temperature and avoid indoor dryness. They can use humidifiers to keep the indoor air moist; Drink plenty of water to replenish the body's hydration.
2. There are blood streaks in the baby's nose, which may be caused by internal heat or a cold. A cold is caused by poor nasal ventilation, which can lead to nasal congestion and dry nasal mucosa, resulting in mucosal bleeding. Mothers should pay attention to preventing their babies from catching colds. Eating foods that are high in vitamins can help improve the baby's resistance and reduce the occurrence of diseases.
3. If a baby has a bad habit of picking their nose, it can cause the nasal septum to bend, and in severe cases, it can lead to rhinitis, which in turn can cause bleeding. Mothers should not let babies dig their nasal cavities with their hands, as it can cause damage to the nasal cavity. If the nose is uncomfortable, you can use peppermint oil to moisturize the nasal cavity, keeping it unobstructed and hygienic. If there is nosebleeds in the baby's nose frequently, then it is necessary to go to the hospital for examination.
