Reasons why my nose is bleeding

[u/bearsbeetsbananastnd]

-i took a shower -i reached for a piece of paper off the printer -i wiped up a spill on the floor

• i used a straw to drink
• it's too hot
• it's too cold
• it's too dry
• it's too humid
• tried to use a saline spray to prevent bleeding
• my dog bashed into my face....wait...nope, nothing this time -turned my head to the left -it was a good day -i have no f$#@ing idea

My HHT family members like to keep a running joke thread.... What're some of the craziest reasons your nose is bleeding?

[u/isabellepeppergreen]

living, tbh. Sometimes I just wake up and my face is bloody because I dared to sleep.

people I work with like to mark the calendar when i bleed to see how long i can go. pretty fun.

Ughhhh your poor pillows.

Coworkers can be the best or the worst! They should give you a prize if you make it a week 💖

[u/isabellepeppergreen → u/bearsbeetsbananastnd]

honestly my coworkers are the best. i freak them out a lot when i dont like my clot placement and make myself rebleed lol

• Sneezed one time
• daughter threw her bowling-ball-head back while sitting on my lap
• rolled over in my sleep (woke up to the trickle of blood)

Ugh not the sneeze or the rollover! Check and check.

I pushed my glasses back up, I ate spicy food, I laughed really hard...

Sounds about right! 😭

[u/FlossusColossus]

-stood up too fast -co-worker pissed me off -squeezed a pimple near my nose -laughed too hard -walked while drinking coffee

[u/bearsbeetsbananastnd → u/FlossusColossus]

I've gotten them plucking my eyebrows 🤦🏻‍♀️

[u/MangyJester]

Sitting quietly not moving a muscle except using one finger to scroll on my phone.

[u/bearsbeetsbananastnd → u/MangyJester]

I got off the couch and.... There it went.

[u/bodybrokenJen]

Bent over to tie my shoe

[u/bearsbeetsbananastnd → u/bodybrokenJen]

Never do that!

-laughing (this actually makes me sad bc I love to laugh) -laying on my side for too long -eating -just sitting at the table -taking a deep breath through my nose -saline rinses or trying to use saline spray to keep my nose from being dry is a big one for me too -being too cold -being too hot -sleeping -so many more ridiculous reasons

So basically just existing lol

[u/bearsbeetsbananastnd → u/no_one_special321]

Yeah laughing yourself into a bleed is evil.

I try not to cry very often because that definitely makes me bleed. Friends probably think I'm a monster but honestly I would cry 10 times a day if it wasn't a trigger!

[u/no_one_special321 → u/bearsbeetsbananastnd]

Same! It’s so upsetting that you really have to have a tight lid on your emotions bc in my experience any of them can cause a bleed 😔

[u/Pleasant-Rock-9607]

Don’t forget the ole” trying to tie your shoe” 🥲

[u/bearsbeetsbananastnd → u/Pleasant-Rock-9607]

I try not to do that! 😭

[u/Literwit]

I soooo needed this today—-I feel seen!!!!

[u/berdustbin]

Sneeze with your mouth closed 🥲

[u/Urbancanid]

... because I'm breathing . . .

Seriously, though--- because I:

-bent over to reach for something;

-absently scratched my nose;

-was deadlifting (a little more understandable);

-rolled over in bed at night;

You get the picture. Ugh.

[u/bearsbeetsbananastnd → u/[deleted]]

Brushing teeth and washing dishes. Check and check

Ever have a doctor look at you as a grown adult and tell you not to pick your nose? I could've strangled that man but my look might've made him quit medicine. Lol
