Hi there my son is 6 months 2 weeks. He was accidently whipped on the nose by our dogs tail and it started bleeding. Should I take him to my GP in the morning, it has stopped and he has been playing and merry for the last 2 hours, he has just gone to sleep.
Hind need to worry. In my. Opinion it's a simple uncomplicated episode of epistaxis that is nasal bleeding. Its most commonly due to bleed from an area in the anterior part of nasal septum known as kiesselbach plexus. Think mucosa and anterior location makes it prone to bleeding by mild trauma. It requires no treatment as the bleeding has stopped spontaneously.
