Why Did My Son Have Nosebleed?
My kids were playing and my daughter hit my son on the side of the head on his ear with her hand. His nose started bleeding immediately after. He otherwise seems fine. Pupils are good and no dizziness. He is just getting over a cold, could fluid in his ear be a contributing cause to the nosebleed?

Hi
It could just be a coincidence that he was having cold, so crusting in nose fragile enough for nose bleed and he was hit by sister
Nosebleeds are very common in children and most commonly are due to nose picking by children and especially if he was having some cold, enough to cause irritation in the nose
Just pinch the nose for 5 min and ask him to breathe thru mouth he well be fine
Take care and stay healthy
