Steroid nasal sprays used to treat hayfever can lead to nosebleeds, the NHS warns.
Hayfever itself is unlikely to cause nosebleeds, however they are a common side effect of steroid nasal sprays many use to treat hayfever. The NHS warns that a burning sensation in the nose or a dry irritated throat are also side effects of the popular hayfever treatment.
One in five people in the UK suffer from hayfever, which is an allergic reaction to certain kinds of pollen. Symptoms are worse during the summer months when the pollen count is often the highest.
