We respect your privacy. Nosebleeds are common, and while the cause may be unclear at first, most cases are minor and can be managed from home. Immediate causes of nosebleeds include trauma to the nose from an injury, deformities inside the nose, inflammation in the nose, or, in rare cases, intranasal tumors. Any of these conditions can cause the surface blood vessels in the nose to bleed.
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.
