Dry Blood In Nose During Pregnancy ((free))

Nasal congestion, dryness, and minor epistaxis (nosebleeds) are among the most common otolaryngological complaints during gestation. Often referred to as "pregnancy rhinitis," these symptoms affect approximately 20% to 30% of pregnant individuals. This paper explores the physiological mechanisms behind dry blood and nasal crusting during pregnancy, distinguishing between benign symptoms and conditions requiring medical intervention. Furthermore, it outlines evidence-based management strategies and preventative measures to ensure maternal comfort and safety.
