I have Frequent Nosebleeds?

This is my sixth nose bleed in 4 days. I am really worried. I am 17 years old, and am going to the doctor for it tomorrow. I have nosebleeds alot, but never this much. Can someone tell me why this could be so I can be prepared tomorrow? Please!

    I got alot of nose bleeds also, I think you can go to the doctor and get some sort of nose operation if you want to stop the bleeding for good.

    But if you dont wanna risk being operated, buy some Nasal Saline Spray and some Afrin or Nasonex.

    Those will certaintly help you out, put on once a day.

    Just yesterday after I started using that, I picked my nose because I had some hard mucus so I got it out and no nose bleed, hurray!

    i have this problem too! i'll be showering, rub my nose and BANG! i'm bleeding. i went to the doctor for it and he told me it was simply a dry nose and to put vaseline on it. it usually only happens in the summer or when it's windy; when my nose is prone to becoming dry. my uncle has the same problem. if the bleed is isolated and is not accompanied by headaches or any other pain you shouldn't worry about it. you should still get it checked out though,

    maybe you should try drinking more water. i usually get nosebleeds after i frequently drink soda. or your nose might be sensitive--to things like blowing your nose too hard or just bumping you nose into something.

    i hope it's nothing serious
