###Human: Can I travel through flight after nose cauterization? ###Assistant: Hi. Nose bleed is a very common problem. It is treated with cautery which may need repeating a few times. Since you had it only a few days ago, it might be better to avoid flying for 3 to 4 weeks, if possible. Carry on using the ointment for one month and then have yourself reviewed by your doctor. This is the standard practice everywhere. Nose bleed. Ointment in the nose for one month. Avoid nose blowing and picking. Keep blood pressure under control. Avoid blood thinners.
