Any 1 of you have kids with occasional nose bleed?
My dear daughter (4 yr) nose bleed a couple of times... usually in the morn... saw the doc previously... doc says nothing wrong physically...
So narrow down to either...
1. Kid is too heaty
2. Aircon room too dry

Fri morn she nose bleed again... aiyo...

Boiling those cut pears for cooling drink...
Thinking of buying a more expensive humidifier... Novita? Does it help?

I did have this problem when I was young. The paed said that the membrane of that particular vein in my nostril was very thin. Sneezing hard will cause a nose bleed. His suggestions at that time were:

1) Remain status quo. Hopefully the membrane walls will thicken quickly and reduce the occurrence.

2) Cauterise that particular vein to resolve the issue quickly. However, no guarantee that the problem will not happen again.

my mom went for Option 2. I can tell you it didn't work. On hindsight, we might be better off remaining status quo. Right now, if I have sneezing fits that last for a while, I still get nose bleeds.

I just bought it from Homefix @ AMK Hub... only 1 left so just take lahh... $65.90... comes with a car charger too.
Using now... fill the container with water...about 1 cup full only... plug in... it kinda boils for 5mins before the mist comes out... dunno how long it will last...hopefully 1 night...
Placed at dw's bedside table... the mist kinda all over her face... like skin therapy... haha! Dunno if it'll work for dd.... cos' the mist dun project far... let u know.
Should be good for travel n use in hotel room... always have the prob with hotel rooms being too dry with the air-con.

Have you sought an ENT specialist's advice yet? Maybe your DD has a different problem from mine. Better consult 1 first.

Me too, it's allergic rhinitis for me. Gets worse whenever the haze comes and if the differential temp is high, like very cold in the morning. These few weeks were terrible, what with the numerous forest fires around. Everyday also wake up with irritated nose and tearing swollen eyes. Haiz...

Daddy D,

My son also have the same nose bleeding problem. We have seen several PDs and all advised us it is normal and do not worry about it.

I have Novita here and I dont use it much ... I dont think it is any useful?
