Summer Nosebleeds: Why They Happen & How to Stop Them

• Nosebleeds are common in summer due to heat and dry air drying out nasal passages, causing delicate blood vessels to rupture.
• Other causes include allergies, sinus infections, nasal injuries, certain medications, high blood pressure, or clotting issues.
• To stop bleeding: sit upright, tilt head slightly forward, pinch soft part of nose for 10-15 minutes, and breathe through mouth.
• Avoid tilting head backward, lying down, or inserting cloths/cotton into the nose.
• Prevention tips: stay hydrated, apply coconut oil/petroleum jelly inside nose, use a humidifier, and steam.
