Is it only me or Coca Cola gives you bleeding nose?!


Question: Is it only me or Coca Cola gives you bleeding nose?
I remember when I was young, I used to drink too much Coca Cola and ended up having a nose bleed. Now, I don't any more

Has anyone had this similar experience?

This is a question to be asked by a doctor, particularly and Ear Nose and Throat doctor. All I can think is that since caffeine is a diruetic (causes your body to lose water), your sinuses are drying out. Of course, I'm not a doctor but I did use to experience frequent nosebleeds as a child although I wasn't aware if caffeine was causing it.

I don't drink soft drinks anymore (once in a blue moon actually) but I drink coffee at times and I drink green tea regularly (which has caffeine too) and I really haven't had nosebleeds for years. I'll get them on occasion but I'm usually having allergies or sinus issues at the time.



Sounds like the old childhood problem you were picking your nose too much!
Ask any ENT doctor and they will tell you young child and nose bleeds that usually the answer!
