Just wondering as dc1 has had a lot of nose bleeds. When pre 2020 dc had never had one.
There is some research.

DD hasn’t had covid but she had quite a lot of nosebleeds this summer which she never has before. The pollen count was worse this year and I get nosebleeds from that, so suspect it’s the same for her. It’s possible covid causes nosebleeds but there are plenty of other explanations.

Mine had 3 nosebleeds when he had Covid, never had them before and hasn't had any since.

Anecdotally I know anlot of kids now having quite regularly nose bleeds. Myself and othe rparents have been putting it down to the twice weekly lateral flow testing irritating their noses.

Mine had 2 nosebleeds just before he tested positive last weekend.
He hadn't had nosebleeds for a while.

I'm mid forties but I had nosebleeds when I had Covid. Never ever had any before or since.

My DS has Covid at present and is having nose bleeds every day or two, He's had them occasionally before but they are definitely much more frequent at prsent.

This has probably been DS's worst year for nosebleeds. He often gets them in spring but this time he's had them throughout spring / summer. I suspect its weather/ pollen related. He's not had Covid that I know of so doubt its related.
