The usual symptoms of allergies<\/a> include itchy eyes, congestion, runny nose, sneezing, scratchy throat and rash or hives. But can allergies lead to nosebleeds? The research suggests that there is a link between these two conditions. We explore the connection in greater depth below.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Allergy Factors that Contribute to Nosebleeds<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Some factors related to allergies that can contribute to nosebleeds include:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dry Nose<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

One of the most common causes of nosebleeds is a dry nose, which can be caused by allergies in some cases. If you\u2019re blowing your nose often due to congestion, this can dry out the nasal passages and contribute to nosebleeds. Certain allergy medications can also contribute to nosebleeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Medications<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Allergy medications<\/a> such as antihistamines, decongestants and corticosteroids found at Medicine Mart Pharmacy Lexington on Columbia Avenue can also cause nosebleeds. This is because antihistamines and decongestants dry out nasal secretions to manage symptoms, but they can also shrink the blood vessels in the nose and make them more delicate, causing nosebleeds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In addition, one study reports, \u201cWhile a differential effect on epistaxis [nosebleeds] among INCS [intranasal corticosteroids] agents is not clearly demonstrated, this meta-analysis does confirm an increased risk of epistaxis for patients using INCSs as compared with placebo for treatment of allergic rhinitis.<\/a>\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
