Hi,
Thanks for posting the query,

I would suggest you to get a routine blood examination done, also do a routine test for TB, a complete physical examination by an Physician is required, the bleeding can also be a result of heat i would suggest you not to do any type of work in hot wheather for long time, if so cover your head, if the bleeding is excess anticoagulant can be applied.


Take care!
