I am getting slight blood in my left nostril from months during blowing or cleaning. Last month also there were blood streaks in cough so I consulted a general physician and was on antibiotics for 1 week followed by test of chest x ray, cbc, esr and sputum culture. All the test shown up normal so I was told to discontinue. But still there is very minute bleeding only in left nostril. Went to ent clinic was on medication for 3 days with montelukast tab. Xylometazoline nasal drops and liquid paraffin. But after few days still I can see minute blood from left nostril which seems very red and little inflammaled without any pain.

This problem is only related to ent specialist. He is expected to give you an exact diagnosis after examination like excoriation, allergic rhinitis, deviated septum, some infection, growth like polyp etc. Or entirely normal. He should also be available for follow up for review if no relief or recurrence etc. Other general causes are bp. Bleeding time, clotting time etc. Take plenty of water. Instill slightly warm salt water 10-15 drops both nostrils, twice a day, as a home remedy. If not yet recovered start working on these lines.
