DS12 has always suffered with nosebleeds, usually when he has a cold. He copes really well with them and it doesn't faze him. My brother always had them as a kid and I know they're quite common. I started getting them when I was doing my a levels and had cauterisation, as did my dad when he was a student. DS has had a couple that have lasted a long time and he's just had 2 heavy ones this morning. Hes just getting over a cold and there was quite a lot if mucus. I've never taken him to the doctors about them as I dont think he has them regularly enough for it to be considered a problem. He did have one not long after starting high school in September, and he was sent home. I don't want it to start affecting his school work.has anyone had any experience with nosebleeds in kids? Would you take him to the doctor?
