Was told to come back on 2/14/18 to have them look at it. They checked my INR was was stable at 2.7 for me on 2/12/18. I do however get small water down blood drips from the area which is annoying.

It was an excruciating and painful experience to get it inserted. I am still having much discomfort from it. Is the removal process as painful and the insertion? I am also on warfarin which scares me about having this incident again.Kathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13661970512973755308noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8621317379873499702.post-81502706558378003702018-01-02T16:37:20.895-05:002018-01-02T16:37:20.895-05:00I know this is an older post but I just got mine d...I know this is an older post but I just got mine done today and my right nostril I'm in so much pain and I do have this constant drip of light blood did anybody ever find out if that was normal please helpAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06358990940654242837noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8621317379873499702.post-68373618351153406092017-12-09T21:11:49.245-05:002017-12-09T21:11:49.245-05:00I recently went into the emergency room with the c...I recently went into the emergency room with the condition described in this article. Pressure applied to the nose would only cause the blood to back up into the nasal cavity, and eventually bleeding would resume once the partially coagulated blood was discharged either through the nostrils or throat and mouth. I was about to have one of those balloon bandages put in when the doctor gave me over-the-counter nose drops (Afrin - Oxymetazoline HCl Nasal Decongestant.), and that stopped the bleeding immediately and completely in just one application. Hopefully, there won't be a next time like that, but if so then that's what I'll try first.

I have an appointment with my ENT for it to come out in 2 days, but it's really uncomfortable. It's also still dripping a little bit which makes me nervous.<br /><br />I can feel coagulated blood at the back of the my throat and it makes me want to gag.

Just had this device inserted today at the ER for a nosebleed that wouldn't stop. There is a constant slight drip of watery blood. And in the 2nd hour after application the pain kicked in to where my teeth are hurting - just like you. They gave me Tramadol but I'm scared to use it after reading all of the warnings. The worst thing is that the ER doctor said that the packing could be removed in 2-3 days but every doctor is telling me that their policy is 4-5 days. And since this is a Tuesday that means that I've got to wait through the weekend until next Monday. That will be 6 full days. :-( I may try calling around to see if any doctors will remove it earlier. Can't see living like this for a week.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16875489427630946058noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8621317379873499702.post-14608101188369771092014-07-08T22:56:49.938-04:002014-07-08T22:56:49.938-04:00Is it normal for blood and fluid to seep out aroun...Is it normal for blood and fluid to seep out around a nasal balloon? I had one inserted at the emergency room on Sunday, July 6th and I am to have it removed on Wednesday. I took a shower and then noticed that dark red blood was seeping out around the bottom of the nasal balloon. Does this mean I won't be able to get this out on Wednesday like planned? It was so painful! My face and teeth just ache! I slipped and fell on the ice outside of my office in February and hit my head. I had a bad concussion. Two weeks later, I started to have nose bleeds. I am 59 and never have had one before. Now I was getting 3-5 a day and they were very hard to stop. Most of the time I could stop them within 20 minutes but the one that I got on Sunday wouldn't stop so I called 911 for help. They couldn't stop it and I ended up in the ER with this vial thing up my nose! No one will listen to me when I tell them that something happened in the fall that has caused this. I saw my VA doctor and she sent me to the ENT before this bad bleed on Sunday. The ENT doctor cauterized some spots but couldn't see where the rest was coming from and felt it was posterior. I was to start my only vacation for the year on Monday. Now, I have lost three days to this incident. What can I say to the doctors to get them to pay attention to this? There has to be a reason that a 59 year old woman who has never had nose bleeds to all of a sudden to have them after falling and hitting her head on the ice. I need some advise on what to do. I can't take much more of this nasal balloon. It just hurts too much? Is Ultram OK to take for the pain? All I have taken is Tylenol and it hasn't helped the pain at all.
