Good afternoon,Im worried about my son of 10yrs old.  Over the past 2months he has woken in the morning with a nose bleed and subsequently passed out.  This morning he passed out again even though the nose bleed was hardly anything at all (just a bit of blood on his hand).  Could it be that he is just squeamish about his own blood?Thanks
Hi...by what you quote, I feel that the bleeding could be any other simple epistaxis, just applying pressure will do most of the time. But if it is recurrent, then it needs evaluation like checking of blood pressure and investigations for bleeding disorder. Regarding the passing out, I feel it could be a legal attack for fear of seeing blood, especially own blood. Nothing to worry about it. Regards -
