NOSEBLEED.

Hemorrhage from the nose is commonly the result either of a catarrhal or
an inflammatory condition of the nasal mucous membrane. Individuals are
susceptible to it who are oppressed by fever or constitutional diseases
that reduce the strength. There is also a condition of the nervous
system in which there is congestion of the nerve centres which favors
manifestations of this somewhat troublesome difficulty.

CAUSES. In some instances an examination of the nose will reveal the
presence of a small point of congested vessels, usually about the size
of a split pea. Upon this portion of the mucous membrane small scabs
form, and at any time when they may be dislodged, by accident or
otherwise, a hemorrhage will ensue.

The constitutional conditions that produce the tendency to hemorrhage
are most important. In individuals of a debilitated condition, it
results from the lack of a proper amount of fibrin in the blood. Where
the blood becomes thin, or loses a large share of its red corpuscles,
the individual is pale, and hemorrhages are frequent from the mucous
surfaces of any portion of the body, the nasal mucous surface being
especially liable to such attacks.

TREATMENT. This is local and constitutional. Where there is
constitutional imperfection, it should be remedied. Usually in young
women there is some difficulty with the ovarian or uterine circulation,
and the attack of hemorrhage from the nose is reflex in its character,
appearing just before or at the time of the menstrual flow, accompanied
with troublesome headache. The correction of this form is by the use of
the "Favorite Prescription" and "Golden Medical Discovery," using of
each a teaspoonful three times a day, taking the "Prescription" before
meals and the "Discovery" after meals. If the bowels are constipated,
the "Pellets" should be employed, in order to overcome any congestion of
the liver which favors the manifestation of nosebleed. In children there
is usually a debilitated state of the system, which is best remedied by
the use of a half teaspoonful dose of the "Discovery," taken three times
a day, after meals, with sweetened water. This treatment should be
continued for a month or six we
