Is excessive bleeding from the nose a sing of leukemia?

many many things cause this including genetic tendancies.... i have a certain native american genetic tendency that makes boys in our family have nose bleeding problems (very often & a lot of blood) until we reach puberty


Rednate
Leukemia is cancer of white blood cells (leukocytes) that are not directly involved in controlling blood flow during hemorrhage.

I stand corrected. Thank you midnight. Low platelet counts can often be associated with leukemias, however that is not always the case and the word leukemia is not a synonym for thrombopenia. Rather reduced platelets can be secondary to the leukemia, but yes a sign. It is much more likely that excessive bleeding from the nose is due to something else.

But again, thanks to another answerer, I see my error.

I used to have nose bleeds a lot as a kid. My mother would take some keys ( like the ones you use to open doors), tie them on a string and hang them down my back. The cold metal would keep my body chill enough to slow down the bleeding and also prevent more bleeding. I used to bleed a lot. I do not have lukemia.

could be if leukemia is present and advancing as other cell lines can become affected. Get your platelet count checked. While you're at it, get screened for Von Willibrand's or Factor 5 Leiden deficiency.

My brother used to suffer frequent nose bleeds until he was finally diagnosed with a deviated septum.

no particulary. My brother in law had a heart problem which caused him to have nose bleeds quite frequently.


midnightmoon62
First, rednate is incorrect, as most leukemia patients have severaly low platelet counts, making excessive bleeding a symptom.

HOWEVER, there are many causes of nose bleeds including snorting drugs, using any kind of nose spray, huffing, dry skin, deviated septum as someone else mentioned, infection in the nose, high altittudes, high bp, ect...........

Go to a doc before you get all worked up, it is likely no big deal
