Emergency Physician Questions Nosebleed

How can I prevent my grandfather's nose bleeds?

My grandfather has a growth in his nose that causes him to have nose bleeds. Normally, we would just help him stop it altogether, but it'd be a lot better if we could prevent them. What should we do to prevent them? His doctor is also well-aware that this keeps happening so we're visiting an ENT at the end of the month.

If it has a growth, needs to be removed
It sounds as though removal of the growth is the best solution. Great you have an ENT follow up!
