Hi, my niece has had 2 concussions within the last couple of years. If she enters shallow water and plugs her nose she gets very bad nose bleeds. She also gets nose bleeds at random times. and I am concerned there may be something more going on as the concussions were months/years ago.Is this normal after concussions? How long will this condition remain if so?
Nose bleed has no connection with previous concussions. Possibly your niece has fragile areas in her nose (called litters area), from that place she bleeds as she plugs nose.I advise you to consult a ENT specialist and also get few tests regarding platelets and coagulation.
