Can someone tell me

Can nasal spray make your blood pressure go high?i really think i have a problem with this stuff i never did up until 2 years ago i just don't know what to do for the first time i started bleeding from my nose.im going to try and stop useing it but whenever i do the right side of my nose get's stuff up what should i do?

What kind of nasal spray?  Is it a prescription like Nasacort or Flonase or the OTC stuff like Afrin?  If it's Afrin that is not supposed to be used all the time, it's really bad.  If your nose is bleeding, that could be an infection or maybe from the spray.  I'm not sure about the blood pressure.  

I think you should try to wean off the Afrin.  You are probably having what's called *rebound* congestion.   Read the label on it.  It tells you not to use for more than 3 days.
