1 The definition of a nosebleed is simply bleeding from the blood vessels in the nose. 2  The medical term for nosebleed is epistaxis. 3  Nosebleeds are common due to the location of the nose on the face, and the large amount of blood vessels in the nose.s a result, trauma to the face can cause nasal injury and bleeding. The bleeding may be profuse, or simply a minor complication. Nosebleeds can occur spontaneously when the nasal membranes dry out and crack. This is common in dry climates, or during the winter months when the air is dry and warm from household heaters.
Answer. Nose bleeds (also known as epistaxis) are a very common problem. They are usually benign and do not require immediate emergency medical attention. However, sometimes they are severe and require medical attention from a specialist. The most common cause of nose bleeds is trauma to the nose. This is most often in the form of nose picking, or from blunt trauma to the face. Often a contributing factor is dry nasal passages that make the nose easier to injure and bleed. Besides trauma, other common cause of nose bleeds is infection. If you have had an upper respiratory tract infection recently, then this will make your nose more susceptible to bleeds.
