What Causes Nose Bleeding Under Stress?

My 8 year olds son nose bleeds when he gets angry or throws a fit. Nose bleeds are common for him when his nose gets dry. Could it be that his nose is dry when he s throwing these fits? And aside from the Neosporin in the nose is there anything else that would help? Just a little tired of the random yet predictable nose bleeds.

Nose picking is a common cause of nose bleed. AV malformations and bleedin diathesis are other important causes. Need to investigate for the same. Xylometazoline drops would be useful in acute nosebleed. Regards
