Im 29 years old non vegetarian, working (desk job in delhi) male. I had about 10 episodes of sudden on and off painless nasal bleed through left nostril in last one month. It's not associated with any sneezing, running nose, nasal congestion, fever, trauma, headache, blurred vision, itching, body rashes, or significant cold. The frequency is about 1-2 times per week, frank red thick blood amounting about 1-2 ml every time, free flow, during eating (while flexing the head), and not always but noticed it almost every time-consuming cooked chicken meal. Subsiding on its own in 2-5 mins. No pain, no other symptoms. 1-2 episodes of nasal bleed initially were associated with severe temporal headache. I'm a known case of hypersensitive pneumonitis, allergic rhinitis and sinusitis. Got treated and controlled, not on any prescribed medications since 1.5 yr. No smoking since 5-6 years. No substance use since last 5-6 years. Blood pressure remains normal.

Good evening prerana, this is due to increased body heat, as you said paras has this episode when he has chicken n this increases the body heat and also he had history of allergic rhinitis, where the nasal membrane are tend to be sensitive. Nothing to worry, just check on the diet, and cut down the food that cause body heat eg- chicken, jaggery, sesame seeds and oil, coffee, alcohol and spicy foods. Whenever there is such �pisode just lie down with head hanging down the cot. Put cold pack on forehead and nose Install 1-2 drops of milk inside the nose To avoid the recurrence practice putting 1-2 drops of ghee into nostrils daily at bedtime It cures sinusitis, rhinitis and also nasal bleeding Hope you find this useful Have a great day
