Hi there I have had nose bleed 3 times past two months and it's always the right nostril can that be something serious? I am a diabetic type 1, I do also have hay fever problem and take citrizine for it.. I also had my hb1ca done 3 weeks ago... Everything seemed cleared

Nosebleeds..not really going to be linked to hba1c.

I get a lot of them when stressed. That's probably not a good thing though! My brother used to suffer them daily as a young adult fromworking with flour making bread.

Only instances I know, wld think easy enough to google..

I get them regularly too. Have done since I was a child, long before diabetes appeared.

They come in "clusters". I'll have multiple in say 3 weeks.... Then nothing for a few months

Nose bleed or epistaxis can occur due to multiple factors. Diabetes is one of the least common systemic cause of nasal bleeding. Bleeding disorders due to any clotting factor deficiency can also be a reason. There are plenty of common ear nose throat problems like sinusitis, polyp etc. And hypertension may also be a cause. If it causes u much concern, then please check it with ur doctor.
