What Causes Blood Clots Inside Nostrils?

I have been painting windows in my daughter s room, on and off for over a week, and in the last couple of days i have noticed my nose having blood on the inside of both of my nostrils. Could that be from the paint? I have used Ecospaint, which is zero Voc and organic. thank you Kathy

Hi,
It seems that constant chemical inhaling there might be having some irritation and soreness giving rise some bleeding and clotting.
Apply some antibiotic cream inside the nostrils.
Do not try to remove blood clots or crusts as this might cause more bleeding.
Ok and take care.
