Child Tripped And Bleeding From Nose. Should I Seek Medical Attention?

Hi, my 2 year old son tripped as he was running and when he fell, he hit his nose..from there quite a bit blood came out from nose, but 10 min later he was fine..this happened last night..he was and is happy now, nothing changed and he is acting fine..my concern is that this situation left a red mark/line over his nose from left to right..should I be concerned or take him to see a doctor if there is no more bleeding today?

HI, thanks for using healthcare magic

If there is no further bleeding and he is as active as normal, then there is no reason to seek medical care.
The red mark that you are seeing is as a result of the injury he sustained to his nose. It will resolve on its own within a few days.

I hope this helps
