Why do kidney failure patients have bleeding from nose? Kidney disease puts people at risk for a number of related health complications. As their kidneys start to fail, some patients may even bleed from their noses, a problem that may need more attention.

Causes of bleeding from nose

1. The decreased blood coagulation function

Normally toxins will be discharged out of the body by kidneys. And in this way, we can live a healthy life without being threatened by toxins. However, in kidney failure, kidneys have been severely damaged and toxins will accumulate in our body. When the toxins reach to a certain level, blood coagulation function will be decreased. As a result, bleeding from nose will occur.

2. High blood pressure

Kidney failure patients often suffer from nose bleeding. This is often caused by high blood pressure. High blood pressure is a common complication of kidney failure. Hypertension can cause nasal mucous membrane burst. As a result, nose bleeding occurs.

Treatments for nose bleeding

1. Dialysis

Dialysis is an artificial kidney, which can help damaged kidneys to discharge some toxins from the body. This can alleviate nose bleeding to some extent.

2. Control high blood pressure

Medications like ACEI (Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibitors) and ARBs (Angiotensin Receptor Blockers) can be used to lower high blood pressure.

3. Chinese Medicines

The fundamental way for stopping nose bleeding is to repair kidney intrinsic cells and improve renal function. Chinese medicines can achieve this goal. As long as kidney function is improved, nose bleeding will be alleviated from the root.
