A doctor has provided 1 answer

Saline gel: Nose bleeds commonly originate from sensitive capillaries in the front nasal membranes. They are sensitive to drying, irritants and allergies.Affected people often wake to a bloody pillow after rubbing their nose in it during light sleep.This is a nose picking equivalent that can trigger the bleed.Liberal use of nasal saline or nasal saline gel at bedtime can reduce the frequency of bleeds.
