Doubt sinus infection as resolves after morning congestion and no headache, fever. Also not related to mask-wearing; that is coincidence, so please wear your mask when indicated (crowds/unknown vaccine status of those around you/when required in some situations). Bleeding likely due to irritation from blowing nose/congestion and dryness. Try humidifier while sleeping;saline to nose before sleep.
