Whenever i blow my nose, blood comes out in the buggers, it's not gushing but it's enough to freak me out. it's been going on for 2 weeks?

Epistaxis: Mucous is thick and draws out the moisture in the blood vessels which are very close to the surface in the lining of the nose (kisselbach? Plexus) this dries them up and they pop, causing the blood. It is not the problem, the problem is your continuous secretion that has to be treated so your problem can stop.
