Abstract

Epistaxis management on COVID-19 patients is concerning for otolaryngologists due to the highly virulence and increased concentration within respiratory droplets and nasal secretions. Authors suggest initial management with oxymetazoline nasal drops and local pressure before considering nasal packing with absorbable material to prevent COVID-19 transmission to surrounding healthcare workers.
