Yes.: It is never wrong to check with her pediatrician. Usually nosebleeds are from dry air-conditioner and colds or nose-picking because the mucosa is very fragile where the nose most frequently bleeds. When it occurs, have her lean her head over the sink so you can see how much she is bleeding, pinch the bridge of her nose, and use an icepack. The Dr. may check her platelets & clotting factors.

Yes please: ongoing nose bleeds need to be evaluated either for a local or a systemic cause, or could be a medicine she took or taking, it might a minor bleed from a congested nose, but safer to be seen by her doctor, good luck
