Hi Doctor,
Have you got any trauma to the nose?
Dd you pick your nose & got hurt?
It looks like Epistaxis, which needs Ice-Sponging of nose.
See an ENT Surgeon to rule out the possibility of bleeding occurring from higher up in the nose which may need cauterisation.
Take care.Have a speedy recovery.
