A member asked:

My 7 month old baby has a small amount of blood coming out of one nose , she has been blocked for the past week , is it normal as she had fever ?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Basics: Bright blood means tissue damage. When it comes from the nose it is usually from the surface capillaries in the nasal membranes. These can be traumatized if the kid rubs it's face into its linen or from infection or trauma directly to the area. It has little significance in small amounts. Nasal washout with normal saline often helps clear it up.
