Frequent Nose Bleeds: Live with it!

                    Nose bleeds can be embarrassing and frightening at times. It brings on agitation in many peoples when it happens. Knowing about Nose bleeds can help you understand the type and take the measures to control it.
               
Nose Bleeding
  Nosebleeds are usually of two types-
 1.      Anterior Nose bleeds are more frequent and covers about 90% of the nosebleeds in people. This includes occasional, slight bleeding from one of the nostrils. This bleeding happens from the blood vessel at the frontal part of the nasal septum where networks of the blood vessels meet. These are less serious and can be brought under control by simple medications or by few home remedies.
 2.      Posterior Nose bleeds are less common and happens in very few cases and is most common in thirdly generation fellows. This includes much, violent bleeding from both nostrils. It starts from arteries lying in the internal posterior part of the nose. These are much complicated and require immediate transfer to hospital and check up by an otolaryngologist.
