Nosebleed: Most nosebleeds are anterior, i.e. 80% or more. Causes are picking, drying of nasal tissue, septal deviation, recurring or chronic staph infection, venous dilatation, chronic inflammation, etc. best to see ENT for evaluation and tx. Aspirin and Ibuprofen will make nosebleed worse.

Recurring nosebleed in same nostril for 1 year. Sometimes nostril hurts. I've been using vaseline in nostril daily. Could this just be a weak vein?
