    Nosebleed, also known as epistaxis, is the common occurrence of bleeding from the nose. There are two types of nosebleeds: anterior, which is the most common type where blood drains from the nostrils, and posterior, which is less common and more likely to require medical attention. While nosebleeds can be alarming due to the sight of blood, they are rarely fatal and only accounted for 4 out of 2.4 million deaths in the U.S. in 1999, with about 60% of people experiencing a nosebleed at some point in their life and 10% being considered serious.

    Nosebleed, also known as a epistaxis, is the common occurrence of bleeding from

    the nose. It is usually noticed when the blood drains out through the nostrils.
    There are two types: anterior (the most common), and posterior (less common, more
    likely to require medical attention). Sometimes in more severe cases, the blood can
    come up the nasolacrimal duct and out from the eye. Fresh blood and clotted blood
    can also flow down into the stomach and cause nausea and vomiting.[1]
    Although the sight of large amounts of blood can be alarming and may warrant
    medical attention, nosebleeds are rarely fatal, accounting for only 4 of the 2.4 million
    deaths in the U.S. in 1999.[2] About 60% of people have a nosebleed at some point in
    their life.[3] About 10% of nosebleeds are serious.[3]
