Nosebleeds: Nosebleeds often are due to the changes in weather and heating and airconditioning changes which dry out the nasal mucuc membranes, which are thin and may tear or bleed with minimal trauma. Use saline nasal spray, not afrin or other nasal meds with blood vessel constricting agents in them. Also, make your membranes inside the nostrils moist with vaseline or other emollients.
