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.
The most common 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. Colds may also irritate the lining of the nose.Bleeding may occur after repeated blowing.ose bleeds are usually caused from nose picking, hot or moist air, or nose-bleeding that is too forceful. To get rid of it, pinch the nose for 10 minutes. If that doesn't wor â¦ k, hold a cold compress over the nose while pinching it.
