Epistaxis nasopharynx nasal cavity Hematemesis hemoptysis

Approximately 90% of nosebleeds can be visualized in the anterior portion of the nasal cavity. Massive epistaxis may be confused with hemoptysis or hematemesis. Blood dripping from the posterior nasopharynx confirms a nasal source. Bimodal incidence exists, with peaks in those aged 2-10 years and 50-80 years.
