first of all you should get your blood test done called as "coagulation profile"
sounds like your blood has got thinner than normal which is the cause of bleeding. this ultimately can lead to anemia. Also get FBC done to check your Hb levels, if its too low then you might need some blood transfusion. Also a proper workout should be done whats causing your blood to get thin. Are you taking any blood thinner medications?
