I react badly to dust and smoke. They cause me to have sinus problems and bad colds that take ages to go away. I have had one of these 'colds' for a couple of months now and the last few days, I have found blood in my mucus when blowing my nose in the morning. It isn't a scary amount of blood but it is certainly more than just a trace. Does anybody know what's wrong with me or what I should do? Please don't just answer 'see a doctor' as I live in Thailand and doctors are usually incompetent and dishonest here. They generally just fob you off and give you medicine you don't need.

the tissue inside the nose is very thin and can be easily torn or ripped chances are this is what has happened you could be blowing too hard but if you have heavy bleeding that will not stop go to the hospital

The nose is a part of the body that is very rich in blood vessels (vascular) and is situated in a vulnerable position on the face. Any trauma to the face can cause bleeding from the nose. This is common in dry climates, or during the winter months when the air is dry and warm from household heaters. Nosebleed Causes Trauma to the nose (nose picking, foreign bodies, forceful nose blowing). The most common cause of a nose bleed is drying of the nasal membranes. Tumors, particularly malignant tumor of the nose or sinuses. The incidence of nosebleeds is higher during the colder winter months when upper respiratory infections are more frequent, and the temperature and humidity fluctuate more dramatically. Use of "blood thinning medications" called anti coagulants. Recurrent nosebleeds may be a symptom of an underlying disorder such as high blood pressure. Inflammation of the nose or sinuses and cold may cause a nose bleed. Deviated septum (when the partition between your nose is crooked), foreign objects in the nose, or other nasal obstruction may also cause nosebleeds.

It could be the air is very dry and drying up the lining membranes inside your nose. Try some saline (nothing more then water) nose spray to keep the lining moist.

You may have allergies and have infected sinuses. Maybe dry air has also clogged things up. The doctor may be the only one who can help.

It still sounds like you have allergies...sinusitis. You can usually buy over the counter antihistamines....Benadryl and decongestants that will help. Claritin D is over the counter now.
