Drug Withdrawal: Methadone Detox Facts

Question: Can you get a bloody nose from any drug withdrawal?

My boyfriend has a history of drug abuse, but he is currently in rehab. He gets drug tested twice a month, and he swears he isn't abusing anymore, but he's had two horrible bloody noses in the past week. I would like to know if there is another reason beyond drug abuse for the bloody noses.

My boyfriend always got nose bleeds when he would snort coke. When he wasn't abusing drugs though, he never got nose bleeds. I think your boyfriend needs to be drug tested way more than only twice a month. And he should probably see a doctor to make sure he doesn't have a hole in his sinuses from his drug abuse...

I have just spent the past 7 weeks in a rehab facility for drugs, i didn't get a bloody nose and i didn't see anyone else with one either but everyones different. He needs to be tested at least once a week. Other reasons for bloody nose could be: Hay fever High Blood pressure Trauma to the face Medication Dry Air But if he has a drug history i would insist on weekly urine/ blood tests
