What Causes Severe Nose Bleeding While Sleeping?

Last night suddenly while sleeping I felt I have a running nose. I got up and wiped my nose and I feel I have severe running nose and when I went and checked it was nose bleed. Then it was stopped in 10 mins. After that I went for sleep again after 20 mins and then in another 10 mins I got the nose bleed again. After that I didn t lie down. I never had nosebleeds before. I had a severe cough and fever in last 7 days. Cough is still there that I cough a lot as if like a dry cough nothing much comes out. During nosebleed I blew my nose I got some thick blood like clots as well. Sometimes when I cough I get the same blood clots. I am 37 year male what I should be doing next ? I was sleeping in A/C room.

Hello,

As a first line management you can take drugs like tranexemic acid to control bleeding. If bleeding persists better to consult an ENT specialist and get evaluated.

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

Take care
