Can Wall Paint Cause Nosebleeds In A Child?
My daughter just woke up crying with a nosebleed. She s almost 3. We painted the walls over 24 hours ago and aired the house out but you can still smell the paint so not sure if its from that or what. Is that normal? She also has been sick with a little cold but no infection.

Hello. I just read through your question.
it is unlikely that the smell from the paint caused a nosebleed. It is more likely that the nosebleed is due to the cold symptoms. This is not uncommon. If the nosebleeds continue, I recommend consulting with your doctor.
