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.
Nose bleeds are never normal. It is unlikely that is is the result of a rhinoplasty. Irritation, dry (from heat or cold) weather, irritation or trauma are some of the causes of nose bleeds. Have a board certified plastic surgeon or ENT doctor assess you. Dr. Michael Omidi
