Hello,
Bleed from the nose at a period of 1 month is absolutely not normal as it is associated with clear discharge from nose which indicates possible damage to cribriform plate of brain. However, I would request you to provide me all the plates of her last CT scan or MRI for detailed evaluation and further guidelines.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
