Hi,

Uncontrolled bleeding may be due to telangiectasia, nasal polyps or sinusitis or drug-like Coumarin or antiplatelet drugs etc.

Avoid antiplatelet drugs, avoid excessive blowing of the nose, use the normal saline nasal spray if the climate is dry. Use the humidifier in the room.

Until examination is done it is difficult to say what it is. Please get it done a nasal endoscopy. If bleeding is present, they may need to ligate the artery of bleeding.

Please consult your ENT specialist, he will examine and treat you accordingly.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
