Two issues: I recommend you to go to see your ENT for nose bleeding- to evaluate your right nostril- perhaps some fragile blood vessels/anatomical abnormality etc. Now, for your thrombocytopenia, start with pcp. If your pcp thinks that your case is more complex, then you will need to see a hematologist to sort it out. Hope it helps.
