Prevention of epistaxis in children


The weather at the turn of winter and spring is dry, and children are prone to damage and bleeding of nasal mucosa. Children's nosebleeds can be caused by nasal diseases, can also be caused by systemic diseases, most of the children's nosebleeds are benign, and almost all occur in the front of the nose, often seen in the nasal capillary damage.

The prevention of children's nosebleed should be started from improving the living environment and cultivating children's good habits, and effective dietary prescription can also prevent and reduce nosebleed.

Life details do prevention.

  1. In the season when the air is dry or the air conditioner is open, maintain a certain temperature and humidity, and use a humidifier or place a basin of water at home to reduce air drying.

  2. To educate children to develop a good habit of not picking their nose, repeated nose picking is easy to damage the nasal mucosa and cause nasal bleeding.

  3. Let children strengthen exercise, enhance physical fitness, avoid crowded places, and reduce the chance of respiratory infection.

Because children suffer from diseases such as cold, tonsillitis, pneumonia or mumps, it is easy to lead to nasal mucosal vascular congestion and swelling, and even cause capillary rupture and bleeding.

Therefore, the prevention of epistaxis should start from the prevention of respiratory diseases.

Take care of your diet.

Children who love nosebleeds should eat less fried fatty food in their daily diet, pay attention to water supplement, eat more fresh vegetables and fruits such as pears, oranges, persimmons and grapes, eat foods rich in protein, vitamins and iron such as honey water, rice juice, milk, juice, etc., or eat some semi-liquid foods such as porridge, noodles, etc., to avoid spicy stimulation and hard food.
