Causes and Remedies. The chief cause of anterior nosebleeds is dry air. A dry climate or heated indoor air irritates and dries out nasal membranes, causing crusts that may itch and then bleed when scratched or picked. Common colds also can irritate the lining of the nose, with bleeding following repeated nose-blowing.
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.
