Hi,
Thank you for posting your query.
The nose bleed and lump on your head are not linked.
Your lump should subside with a course of antibiotics.
At present, there is no need to worry. If nose bleeding recurs, then please consult an ENT doctor.
Please get back if you require any additional information.

Hi,
Don't worry about the nasal bleed , it can be secondary to summer. . You need to consult Neurologist and get evaluated.
Need to rule out Arterial venous malformation of the scalp region with intracranial extension,hence you may require CT scan with angiography.
