ENT Specialist 's  Response
Hello and welcome to health care magic,

You seem to have a mild cold or flu which has caused the congestion and also the bleed.
Do not blow or pick your nose
Start an antihistamine and oxymetazoline drops in consultation with your doctor
Get a full coagulation profile done
Get your blood pressure evaluated and keep them in control

If the problems persists then you must get a CT PNS and get back to me or any ENT surgeon with the reports

get well soon

regards

Dr Sriram Nathan
