My 5 year old daughter has very frequent nosebleeds at least twice a week since she was 1 year old. Botroclot, neosporin ointment, and ice are being used continuously. She bleeds heavily and it does not stop until Botroclot is used. Blood report with respect to clotting is normal. We were told it will normalize as she grows but we are very worried. Kindly suggest us.

Recurrent nosebleeds may be due to fragile nasal vessels. Continue Botroclot if needed, use humidifier, avoid nose picking. ENT exam is advised to rule out local causes.
