Can Eating Broccoli Cause Nosebleeds While Suffering From Cardiomyopathy?
My 10 year old has had blood in his nose the last two days. It was just in there yesterday but today I looked at him Nd it was running a bit down his nose. He does have Cardiomiopathy and Duchennes md. Might sound silly but he eats a ton of broccoli and I hear that can thin your blood but can it cause bloody noses?
Great leafy vegetables increase blood thickness and are not a cause of nose bleed, kindly consult with an ENT physician personally for proper physical and diagnostic evaluation and management.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Bhanu Partap, Cardiologist
