bloody nose in toddler?

lately Mikey keeps waking up with crusty bloody mucus all around his nostrils, but nothing really anywhere else in his crib, I figure his room is dry and I have to get a humidifier for there. But today it was bad, I mean all over his sheets, his blankets, face. I cleaned him up and it is not actively bleeding and it never has but he has dark bloody clots(?), boogies(?)- in his nose- 

anyone have this? I called the nurse and waiting a call back- I was not worried until this morning-

thanks!

Re: bloody nose in toddler?

  • Have you tried a saline spray?  It does sound like its just too dry and the nose bleeds easily.

  • I haven't tried, since he freaks at the sight of it, lol! But I think I am going to try and see if that helps until i get a humidifier for in there-

  • M's nose bleeds all winter long. We have to keep a humidifier in his room and once or twice my ped had me rub vaseline in there with a q-tip.
