  • First, the fact that you are having nosebleeds may not be a very good indication to begin with. Nosebleeds are often caused due to damaged mucus membranes. The problem with having your mucus membranes damaged is that there is a possibility that you can develop nasal polyps. This is not a nice condition, as nasal polyps are growths inside your nose that can cause a lot of pain and, in the more severe cases, even change the shape of your face in that nasal area.

    The blood clots simply mean that your blood is drying within the nasal passage or even in the sinus cavity.

  • I would like to know the answer to this question also. I had a very large blood clot that I pulled from my left nostril. Only one nostril was bleeding and stopped soon after.
  • My kids have the same problem. I don't see any answers posted, but this must be fairly common if there are multiple posts.
  • When your nose bleeds, the blood clotting is what eventually stops the bleeding. I am not a doctor, but it seems logical that you would see blood clots if you didn't allow the clot to stabilize and harden before blowing/picking your nose.
    • your right the blood clots are just the blood stopping the flow it is ok to see them but if you do see them stop blowing or it wont clot and it will keep bleeding
  • This can be caused by the blood congealing in your nasal carriageway and coming out in clots. But see your doctor if you are concerned.

If the nosebleeding is heavy enough or is happening chronically, then yes, it could be harmful to your health. If you keep bleeding all the time, you can become anemic and if you bleed to heavily and can't get it to stop (it would have to be very very heavy bleeding) then you could potentially bleed out or choke on the blood if you swallow it. Also, if you're nose is bleeding all the time, the question is why since that isn't normal. If you're just picking your nose all the time, well there you go, but if you're bleeding heavily from your nose or bleeding all the time and you've been leaving your nose alone, it's possible you have a bleeding disorder such as Von Willebrand's Disease or a problem with your platelets that help you form blood clots. If you're worried about your nosebleeds, it's probably best to consider speaking to your doctor about it as soon as possible.

Why is your grandma having big blood clots come out of her nose?

What happens if you have held your head back and pinched your nose to stop them from bleeding and they don't stop for at least twenty minutes and big blood clots come out?

Haha, that happened to me once. Except my nose bleed lasted about 3 hours, on and off. Nothing much happened. The blood clots came out, it bled a little bit more, then stopped. Don't worry about it. Blood clots are a good sign, it shows you're healing properly. They only form because, as you have your head back, the blood has no where to run out so clots in big lumps in your nose.
