Brief Answer:
Deviated nasal septum

Detailed Answer:

Hi,

You are probably having a deviated nasal septum. The bleeding from nose can be due to infection or dryness.
You should get a X-ray paranasal sinuses done and send me the picture.
Avoid finger picking and apply an antibiotic ointment in the nostrils.

Follow up with the required information so that I can suggest you better.
Take care
Thanks and regards
