Suggest Treatment For Nose Bleeding Post Injury

My one year old son fell out of the tub when my wife was looking the other way. About a foot. Did not see if he hit his nose but when she turned around hehad his back on the ground and had very minimal blood from the nose. Maybe one drop. Should i take him in?

just check is there any loss of consciousness, irritability of the child, and if the bleeding does not stop take him to hospital. If not check for any visible wound in the nose, if stopped bleeding need not worry, if not better take him to a hospital for direct check up.
