Nosebleeds (Epistaxis) – Causes and Remedies
Epistaxis, colloquially known as nosebleeds, is a condition indicated by streams of blood trickling or dripping from the nostril(s). It is a relatively common occurrence for those under the age of ten or over the age of fifty, with most individuals experiencing at least one nosebleed during their lifetime. However, it can still be an unsettling and unanticipated experience. While most cases of nosebleeds are harmless and self-treatable, it is important to understand the causes, symptoms, and appropriate treatment methods to manage oneself in the event of one in an effective manner.
