What Care Should Be Taken For Nosebleeds, Blurred Vision And Migraines?

Hi, I just got a pretty bad nosebleed and I ve been getting them often. I ve never had one before in my life until this year. I live in Michigan so I thought it might be from dry air during the winter. Today is humid and rainy though. Also, my vision is starting to get blurry, I m 21 years old so I find this odd. And I get regular migraines, about twice a month. What is wrong with me?

Hi,

Your treatment strategy depends on the frequency and severity of your headaches, the degree of disability your headaches cause, and your other medical conditions. Pain relievers such as Aspirin or ibuprofen (Advil, Motrin IB, others) may help relieve mild migraines. Acetaminophen (Tylenol, others), also may help relieve mild migraines in some people. Drugs marketed specifically for migraines, such as the combination of acetaminophen, aspirin and caffeine (Excedrin Migraine), also may ease moderate migraine pain. Triptans effectively relieve the pain and other symptoms that are associated with migraines. They are available in pill, nasal spray and injection form. Anti-nausea medications, opioids and steroids may be used in addition in severe cases. Also, you need to rest and relax and have good sleep. If there is no improvement it would be good to do an MRI scan and have a neurological exam.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ivan R. Rommstein, General Surgeon
