Can frequent nose bleeds mean i have thin blood?

Not necessarily: Nose bleed reasons: nasal congestion or nasal dryness, ^ blood pressure, excessive use of decongestants, being at ^ altitude, trauma to nose, nose picking, or blowing the nose hard. Bacterial & viral infections can ^ risk as well as bleeding disorders. Recurrent nose bleeds may be due to broken vessel in the nose. Alcohol / Cocaine abuse can cause nose bleeds, as can tumors.

This has happened to me about 6 times since the initial. It is stopping quicker now, but still drips. Should I be concerned? Bump on nose won't stop bleeding
