Answers:

Hi Xavier, nosebleeds are really inconvenient, I used to get them every day and it was embarrassing if you are on the train or in a shop, everyone looks at you! Normally they are not serious especially if your blood pressure is good (which yours is) and you are young, but very rarely it can be a sign of leukemia (cancer of the blood) or a tumour in the nose, so I would strongly recommend that you go to a doctor and get some advice to put your mind at rest. I got my nosebleeds after returning to England from abroad, they lasted for about 5 years on and off, maybe it is England that makes our noses bleed! lol!
