A nosebleed happens when one of the blood vessels in the lining of the nose bursts. Nosebleeds may be caused by infection, injury, allergic reaction, nose picking or an object being pushed into the nostril. Another name for nosebleed is epistaxis. Bleeding from the nose is common in children and is usually not serious. Seek medical attention if nosebleeds are severe, frequent or prolonged.
Stress and Nosebleed. The human nose is full of blood vessels which can be easily damaged resulting in a nosebleed. Apart from any kind of trauma that results in injury to the nose, bleeding may also occur in dry weather or during the dry winter months when the nasal membranes turn too dry. One of the more common causes of non-trauma induced nosebleeds is an increase in blood pressure.
