Epistaxis | For my people in the front in the nosebleed section

Epistaxis is the medical term for a nosebleed. This is a common occurrence in kids, and is usually due to a combination of nasal mucosa, plus trauma like picking and the effects of drying from the air around us. 

They usually don't need to be investigated, unless they occur often, are resistant to basic measures or there if there are other red flags - which we will discuss further in this episode!
