Hi
Some times nasal bleeding is common with fevers especially with cold and throat infections. If it is still bleeding you should press that side nostril and keep it close for 1 to 2 minutes (one nostril at a time only) so that bleeding will stop and consult your doctor. As Littles plexus is weak in side nostrils bleeding occurs from nostrils commonly.
