Panic mama. It was your first ever nose bleed. Tak banyak pun... tak meleleh-leleh cuma visible kat lubang hidung dan sebab Aliya wipe nose Aliya unconciously ada lah tercalit sikit kat tepi hidung. Tapi mama panic le sebab nampak darah kat Aliya!
Masa tu baru nak je lepas solat Maghrib kat restoran Yusuf Haslam. Berbuka puasa semalam. Time tu tgh nak ambik kuih yang sama colour dgn t-shirt Aliya ~ belang2 pink and white yang selalu je ada dalam gambar. Kawan abah Hj Satar suruh cepat2 amik ice dan letak kat atas kepala Aliya. Dia kata kepala panas tu. Abah pun bergegas bangun ke kitchen restoran mintak ice. Then, abah letak dalam handkerchief abah, bg mama letak kat kepala. Aliya okay je.. suka je... macam takde apa2 berlaku pun. Cuma kepala Aliya jadi basah la macam mandi. Aliya siap berangan tgh shampoo rambut lagi. Haha.
Seorang pakcik yang kerja kat kedai tu pun, kebetulan berada berhampiran dgn tempat kejadian cakap perkara yang sama juga, kena letak ice atas kepala. Dia kata 'owh.. ni sama la ni dgn anak pakcik yang itu' sambil menunjuk ke arah seorang perempuan baya2 ateh. Perempuan tu senyum aje.
Pakcik tu kata nanti dia baik sendiri. Pakcik bawak anak pakcik gi klinik, diorang pun suruh letak ice kat kepala, lap hidung dgn kain lembap. Katanya diorng pun takde bagi ubat apa2 pun. Itu saje caranya.
Memang takde pun darah yang keluar lagi lepas tu. Memang tak banyak pun keluar asalnya. Mama actually risau jugak nak tiba2 letak ice kat atas kepala aliya. Macam boleh demam je macamtu mama fikir sebab dari panas tiba2 sejuk mendadak..... Nasib baik Aliya tak demam.
Tapi mama tak puas hati juga ni, macammana boleh datang nose bleed ni ek? Macammana pulak kepala aliya panas tapi tak demam? Heran. Apakah penjelasan saintifik utk fenomena ni (chewah!) So, mama google la "nose bleed". Banyak info yang mama dapat. Antaranya (to sum ye.. sbb banyak site ni)...
~ Punca nose bleed: Generally, due to dry and warm air. Sometimes, due to allergy medication (antihistamine) which results in drier nose interior. Sometimes, nose picking. Other, less common, causes include injuries, colds, allergies or cocaine use. Children may stick small objects up the nose. Older people may have atherosclerosis (which is the hardening of the arteries), infections, high blood pressure and blood clotting disorders, or they may be taking drugs like aspirin that interfere with blood clotting. Sometimes, the cause of nosebleeds can't be determined.
~ What should we do kalau ada nose bleed: sit down and lean slightly forward. Keeping your head above your heart will slow the bleeding. Lean forward so the blood will drain out of your nose instead of down the back of your throat. If you lean back, you may swallow the blood. This can cause irritate your stomach. Use your thumb and index finger to squeeze together the soft portion of your nose. This area is located between the end of your nose and the hard, bony ridge that forms the bridge of your nose. Keep holding your nose until the bleeding stops. Don't let go for at least 5 minutes. If it's still bleeding, hold it again for another 5 to 10 minutes. Once the bleeding stops, don't do anything that may make it start again, such as bending over or blowing your nose. Once you've stopped the initial nosebleed, don't lift heavy objects or do other activities that cause you to strain, and don't blow your nose for 24 hours. Also, keep your head elevated above your heart as much as possible. A single nosebleed is rarely cause for alarm, but frequent nosebleeds might indicate a more serious problem. If you get nosebleeds more than once a week, you should see your doctor. Most cases of frequent nosebleeds are easily treated. Sometimes blood vessels inside the nose become irritated and don't heal. This happens frequently in teens who have ongoing allergies or frequent colds. A doctor may have a solution if you have this problem.
If your doctor rules out a sinus infection, allergies, or irritated blood vessels, he or she may order other tests to see why you're getting frequent nosebleeds. Rarely, a bleeding disorder could be a possibility, although it's unlikely that a bleeding disorder will first show up as a nosebleed.
So.. in your case, mama ingat yang prior to that incident Aliya sneezed banyak kali. Banyak dari pada biasa (in your case, more than 5 times). Maybe sebab tu kot. Lagi satu, Aliya ni kalau mama suruh blow your nose masa selsema, suka blow kuat2.. sebab nak bagi mama 'kejut'. Hehe. Mama pun ingat menda tu harmless, so mama pun selalu je buat2 'kejut'. Tu yang lagi Aliya suka buat. So lepas ni no more kejut2 dgn blow nose kuat2 ye sayang.
Okay... harap2 information ni cukup buat rujukan mama and aliya sendiri in the future. Kalau Aliya rajin, (memang rajin pun, kan) Aliya google lah. Ada banyak info, siap ada diagram, sketch gambar hidung dan details kat mana selalu berdarah, dan macam2 lah. Ada cartoon yg lukis gambar darah keluar memancut2 lagi dari hidung. Mama nak letak tadi kat sini tapi hari ni mama rasa tak sampai hati pulak. Tgk lah esok lusa kalau angin mama jadi angin kejam sikit. Hehehe....
Jaga2.. jgn korek idung tu. Hesy... Kalau ada taik idung bersihkan dengan cara wuduk tu.. masukkan air dalam rongga hidung dan keluarkan semula. Buat selalu... kan elok melembapkan kulit bhgian dalam hidung.. selain sebab mama pernah baca kat mana tah dulu, yang Syaitan suka tidur dalam rongga hidung. Buat kita jadi malas nak solat. Bila masukkan air, Syaitan pun akan...? ruuuunnnn ;-)
Juga minum air banyak2 okeh... Jadikan amalan. Saaaaaaaaayang anak mama. Mmuahss.
