First aid for summer nosebleeds
High temperatures and dry air during the summer can cause sudden nosebleeds, as they lead to dryness and dilation of the blood vessels in the nose, increasing the likelihood of bleeding even in healthy individuals. Most cases of bleeding are temporary and can be treated with basic first aid. However, if the bleeding lasts more than 15 minutes or recurs frequently, it is advisable to consult a doctor. Other causes of nosebleeds include sinus infections, allergies, nasal injuries, and the use of blood-thinning medications. Experts recommend staying hydrated and using nasal moisturizers during periods of extreme heat.
