Nosebleeds and headaches?

amynicole21 wrote: Sophia has been complaining about a headache and stomach-ache for two days now. Sometimes it's difficult to tell if she is faking or not but then she woke up this morning with a nose-bleed. It was pretty strong... not just dripping. She's had one or two others before, usually in the morning when she wakes up. It's so humid here in the summer that I can't imagine it would be too dry in the house for her sinuses... can anyone else think of what might be going on?

ediep replied: oh no! that sounds scary!!

I have no clue what it could be...... good luck, hope she feels better soon

MommyToAshley replied: Ashley has nosebleeds as well. She's had about 6-8 this summer,with a couple of them being pretty bad. The ped thinks it is from her allergies but I am not convinced 100%.

Let me know what you find out.

BAC'sMom replied: Allergies maybe? Her headache could be from her head being stopped up from lying down all night, and the stomachache could be from drainage. The nosebleeds could be connected I am really not sure. Hope she gets to feeling better

DansMom replied: Oh my! Poor Sophia. Yes, with the humidity in Florida it can't be dryness, seems unlikely. I hope you figure this out soon!

Calimama replied: I hope she feels better soon.

amynicole21 replied: Thanks guys. She was sent home from daycare with a 101 fever. Not sure what's going on with her

Oh no poor girl.

I hope she feels better soon and you figure it out.

grapfruit replied: Are you taking her to the doctor?

gr33n3y3z replied: it very well could be allergies maybe say something to the Dr.

grapfruit replied: Does she normally have nose bleeds?? I guess if it's normal, maybe call and ask the doctor, but if it's NOT normal. I'd visit them.

MommyToAshley replied: Poor girl. I wonder if she has a sinus infection... nose bleeds, headache, and temp would all be symptoms of a sinus infection. I would probably take her to the ped.

Hope she feels better.

My2Beauties replied: I would have nosebleeds as a child that would fill up towels!!!! It was from dry air, do you have any kerosene heaters in your home, any issues with your air conditioner system, have you changed your filter? I mean it could be so many things. Also, their noses can bleed because of allergy issues as well, I've heard of this
