HI.
What is your blood pressure?Do you take any medicines for high blood pressure or heart ailments. This can be one of the reasons.
If your blood pressure is normal and you are not taking any treatment: The probable reason can be in the nose; the exposed artery or a vein. infection of the nose. Mass in the Nose.
You need an urgent examination by an ENT Surgeon.
You may also need a Packing of the nose , if the bleeding recurs.
