blood clots in nose

Posted , 4 users are following.

Last night I blew a large clot from my nose, and then continued to blow large clots for about an hour and a half. I also had drainage so I had blood in my throat and spewtum as well. This morning nothing. I would feel I needed to blow and just get a clot then a few minutes later I needed to blow again. This can't be normal.

    Are you taking a prescribed anticoagulant?

    I am on warfarin, and occasionally have had nosebleeds, and what looked like clots from the nose, although I think it was simply bloodstained mucus.  Also occasional bleeding from the gums, particularly when brushing my teeth.  When these have occurred, it has usually been when my INR is too high.
