Frequent nose bleeds, or epistaxis, occur when the delicate blood vessels inside the nose rupture. They can result from various factors, including dry air, nasal trauma, allergies, or structural abnormalities like a deviated septum. Chronic nose bleeds are more common in adults and children who experience frequent nasal irritation or have underlying health conditions such as hypertension or clotting disorders. In Boca Raton, NSIBR is renowned for successfully treating frequent nose bleeds. The distinguished surgical team, Dr. Nachlas, Dr. Hancock, and Dr. del Valle utilize advanced diagnostic tools and personalized treatment plans to address the root causes of nose bleeds.
Before considering surgical options, we explore non-surgical treatments for managing nose bleeds. Non-surgical options include nasal moisturizers and saline sprays to keep the nasal passages hydrated, cauterization to seal bleeding blood vessels, and topical medications to manage inflammation or other contributing factors.
If this brings little relief, our NSIBR surgeons can offer various surgical options to effectively treat frequent nose bleeds, ensuring long-lasting relief and improved nasal health.
If non-surgical methods do not provide sufficient relief and your nose bleeds are frequent or severe, you may be a candidate for surgical treatment. Certain criteria for surgical intervention may include:
The effectiveness of non-surgical nose bleed treatment may vary, and occasional nose bleeds might persist if the underlying issue isn’t fully addressed. If such cases surgical options may be necessary.
Our nose bleed surgery is performed under a light anesthetic, even though local anesthesia may also be used. During the procedure, our surgeons correct structural nasal issues that contribute to constant nose bleeds. You may feel mild discomfort during recovery and may experience some swelling, and nasal congestion. Most patients return to normal activities within a few days even though full recovery from Septoplasty can take up to 3 months. Pre-surgery guidelines may include pausing certain medications and avoiding smoking. Results, including reduced frequency of nose bleeds, typically become noticeable as healing progresses over the following weeks.
Treating frequent nose bleeds at NSIBR offers numerous advantages. Our specialized procedures not only stop the bleeding but also enhance overall nasal health and functionality.
