question: My son was born 7 weeks premature with a grade 3 IVH. The bleeding stopped soon after but led to hydrocephalus. He is now 20 months. He does not have a shunt. His neurologist didn t wanna put one in because he said there is no pressure at this time. He s been getting nosebleeds for quite sometime now and they keep getting worse. Could this be related to the hydrocephalus in any way.
