my sister was like that when she was little...she got nosebleeds like every single night. my mom took her to the doctor, and im not quite sure what they did to her, but they had her go to the emergency room..and they like burned something out?...she said it didn't hurt, and she was only 7, so im sure your son will be fine if you take him to get it done as well.
(and sorry i dont remember what the name of the procedure is)

Some People Like My Son Have A Very Thin Membrane That Breaks SomeTimes Go To A Doctor And They Will Use Something Like A Match That They Light And Blow Out And Touch The Membrane With. It Does Not Hurt But Will Make Him Want To Sneeze At First. Within A Hour Your Son Wont Even Realize It Had Been Done.

Cauterized, I think is what Ashley means.
Frequent nosebleeds can be a sign of many conditions including poor blood clotting. Please check with your doctor.
Some children have veins that are closer to the mucous membrane of their nose than other children. Because the veins are very close to the skin, they are more likely to burst when the child picks, blows or rubs their nose, or plays rough games.
Some children pick their nose a lot so they too are more likely to get nosebleeds. Cut the child's nails frequently. A little petroleum jelly applied on the inner side of the nose can also soften scabs.
If the child often gets nosebleeds, it may be a good idea to have a doctor examine them.
If the nosebleeds are caused by a vein that is very close to the skin, they can be prevented by cauterising the front of the nose.

A common cause of this is lack of vitamin K. It's easy enough to try supplementing with K. If the nosebleeds stop, great. If not, it's something else. Some people just need more K than others do.
I had two girls that were having nose bleeds every week. I started them on K, and voila! no more nosebleeds. Except once when one of them fell off a fast-moving bike and scraped up her face.

If he's otherwise healthy the most common cause of nose bleeds is physical trauma to the mucous membranes. This is usually caused by a finger... nuff said?
Make sure his finger nails are trimmed and smooth and keep them short. Also, occasionally, put some Neosporin or other antibiotic petroleum jelly based cream on the inside surface of the nose.

what do you mean by always has?? How long has it been going on? Do you notice that he has bruising that doesn't clear quickly? Any pain or fever? If so he needs to get to a doc. I don't want to scare you but frequent nosebleeds, and bruising that doesn't clear can be caused from cancer
