What Causes Nosebleeds?
7. Blood Disorders
Other potential causes of nosebleeds include certain blood disorders. This includes hemophilia, which is a condition that affects the blood’s ability to clot to prevent excess blood loss. This means even the smallest of injuries can result in heavy bleeding. It is a potentially dangerous condition because it can result in severe blood loss and dangerous internal bleeding.
Another potential cause of nosebleeds is immune thrombocytopenia. This is a type of autoimmune condition that causes the patient to bruise and bleed more easily than usual. There is also hereditary hemorrhagic telangiectasia which is a condition that causes the blood vessels to form abnormally.
