What Does A Fleshy Nasal Discharge Indicate?

I just blew out a piece of thick skin like substance from my nose while having a nose bleed. The nose bleed did not last long. The substance was thick and had some blood on it but was mostly white. Now my nose feels really clear on that side . What could this be?

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service. I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

A sudden or infrequent nosebleed is rarely serious.
Dry air is the most common cause of nosebleeds. Living in a dry climate and using a central heating system can dry out the nasal membranes, which are tissues inside the nose.

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