Question: What could be the cause of my nose bleeds!. I do have high blood pressure!?
So could my nose bleeds act as a safety mechanism to counteract my high blood pressureWww@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
The blood vessels in your nose are very small and at the skins surface!. High blood pressure is likely to cause them to burst from time to time!. Some blood pressure medication can also promote bleeding!.

Your system will detect bleeds straight away, and send in clotting agents to plug the breach!.

Any concerns then call NHS Direct on 0845 4647 (24 hrs)Www@Answer-Health@Com

i used to get lots of nose bleeds as a kid
the reason i was given is that sometimes your body produces too much blood and the weakest blood vessels break to release the excess
and guess where they are !?
yep your nose
if the bleeds are only short (up to 5 mins ) it is not a problem
but if you have a lot see your GP
my longest was 4 hours !!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Not necessarily!. Sometimes ther is a fragile blood vessel that ruptures periodically!.
See your Doc and get some reassurance!.
If bleeds persist and become a nuisance it's possible to have a vessel cauterised!. Not as painful as it sounds!Www@Answer-Health@Com

This link should answer your question!.

There is no correlation between nose bleeds and high BP!.

You might have a weak blood vessel in your nose, which may need to be cauterised!.

Yes!. High blood pressure is causing your nose bleeds!. Dont rely on a bleed to bring your BP down though, there are better ways of controlling BP!
Additionally frequent nose bleeds may lead to anaemia so I would suggest you get the high blood pressure treated asap!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

When you have a nose bleed it doesn't just mean you have a high blood pressure!. It could mean other things like the weather is to hot!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
