What is the cause of frequent nosebleeds?

Ask
Hello doctor,
I have nosebleeds when blowing my nose and picking my nose. Just a slight leak is enough to melt. I only had a leak on one side. The weather in Vietnam right now is not very dry. So the doctor asked me why my nose bleeds often? I thank you doctor.

You should give up the habit of picking your nose and avoid blowing your nose actively, it will usually reduce the above situation. In general, bleeding in this area is not too dangerous.
However, you need to learn how to stop nose bleeding properly and avoid the 2 bad habits mentioned above. Regardless of the cause of the nosebleed, the first aid method for nosebleeds also follows 3 steps as follows:
Step 1: Sit up straight. Step 2: Tilt your head slightly forward. Step 3: Squeeze your nose and breathe slowly through your mouth for about 10 minutes until the bleeding slows down or stops completely. If nosebleeds in adults are caused by stress, the patient should note:
Try to relax and breathe evenly. While waiting for the bleeding to stop, pay attention to the depth of each breath and the movement of the chest up and down while breathing. Avoid stressful life situations to treat nosebleeds effectively. You should go to a quiet and deserted place when a nosebleed occurs.
