Would you consider this frequent nose bleeds

I had a nose bleed about a week ago. I had another a few days ago. I’ve also had one today. My nose constantly has blood up it and may be tmi but even my nasal mucus always has blood in it. Had bloods in august due to this and petechiae spots.
Mostly came back clear about small red blood cells. Do I go back to gp again? I’m worried that I’m wasting their time.

Yup, I would consider that frequent and go to gp. It doesn't have to be anything too serious though, so go, but don't be scared. It can just be that the veins and wall in there became week. My DB used to have special gel tampon for his nose🙈.

Thank I’m assuming it’s nothing serious as bloods were okay back in august and I’m generally well.

OP, google HHT (hereditary haemorrhagic telengiectasia), sometimes known as Osler Weber Rendau syndrome. It sounds like you meet the diagnostic criteria for it. Don’t panic, it’s often very mild!

I've been having nosebleeds once every few days for about 18 months now and just ignoring it... now wondering whether I should be googling harder!

Thank you. Do you think I get to be seen in person to actually examine my nose. The last it was all over telephone.

@Nacreousand @Sinceyouwentaway did you ever get to the bottom of your nosebleeds?
