I am having the same problem - 4 cases of spontaneous bleeding from the left nostril, followed later by a bad headache behind the left eye. MRIs show no tumor and normal sinuses. I am now being referred to a specialist. What is this???!!
The problem is, I have not been taking medications other than birth control. The nosebleeds and headaches happened both before, during, and after I had birth control, so they appear to be independent of that factor, and I take no other medications.
I have spoken to three different doctors about the problem, and out of all of it have only been able to procure a CT scan that indicates normal sinuses. Nothing else is tested. Most doctors are trying to view the symptoms as individual instances, but I truly believe that the headaches and nosebleeds are connected in some way.
Hi
It would be difficult to assess the cause of your nose bleed exactly without an examination; however you should find the following information useful.
Nose bleeds associated with headaches might be due to a raised blood pressure, blood disorders or in injury to the head. A blow to the head may damage some blood vessels in the head region. Besides, migraines are "vascular" headaches, and medications might have something to do with your nosebleed.
.
Do you have any history of raised cholesterol, raised BP, diabetes, cervical spondylosis or any other medical problems? Are you currently on any medications for migraine? I would advise that you should discuss this with your doctor right away as the bleeding in your case lasts for quite a long duration (5-20 minutes). He would advise a proper management and might consider changing some of your ongoing medication.
Do write in if you need some other information.
Take care!
