AI overview
A nosebleed is bleeding that occurs from inside the nose, which can happen for various reasons including dry air, nasal injury, or underlying health conditions. While most nosebleeds stop on their own and aren't serious, frequent or heavy nosebleeds may warrant medical attention to identify and address the underlying cause.
