It could be a number of things: Changes in the environment as in cold, dryness and low humidity.
Injury to the nose.
Medical problems such as abnormal structure inside the nose(nasal polyps or deviated septum), colds, allergies or sinus infections,
High blood pressure, kidney disease or blood clot disorder.
Nasal abuse
Some medication may cause nose bleeds
If nose bleeds occur several times you need to see your physician

It can be for several reasons but the most common is because blood vessels in the nose burst (usually because of heat) and bleed.
If your nose is irritated from hayfever or cold and flu syptoms that can cause it as well.
If it bleeds tilt the face upwards with a covered bag of ice over the area. Keep check on it until it finishes bleeding.

Well-the most common cause is nose picking -there are alot ob blood capillaris in the inside of the nose and doesn't take much to weaken-why kids get a lot of no other cause found nosebleeds. People who snort-take drugs like cocaine,speed and so on also get nosebleeds for drugs weaken capillaries, bad sinuses can eventually for involves a lot of sneezing(why also hay fever) or more serious causes-liver problems,lung problems, tumors and what have you. if you have nosebleeds quite frequent and it bothers you go see a doctor and get it checked -if not serious alt least you have peace of mind---ice pack on nose helps . Take a Vitamin-Mineral Complex daily to make sure you are getting all the nutrients you need.

A very good, eye-opening site about this problem is: http://memoryloss.toptips.org/
Memory loss may be due to many conditions such as small strokes in the brain, diabetes, high blood pressure, nutritional deficiencies, reactions to medications and alcoholism. The symtoms of more severe forms of Dementia / Alzheimer are mainly: poor judgement, poor decision making, masplacing things, difficulty having a conversation, losing track of dates, etc. If you notice any of these signs visit your doctor.
Good Bye

Sometimes, curing climate changes, the wet fleshy lining of the nose will become dry and crack, clausing bleeding to occur

Many things can cause this some pretty serious to plain simply too much dust. If there is no other symptoms though I would say dust.

Its usually severely dry sinuses. Dry air will cause them to get that bad. Use a saline spray more often, as much as you like.

I'm not sure as to the specific reasons, but I know that sometimes it can be due to a serious health condition. Sometimes, it's not due ot anything serious, but I'd call your doctor.

sometimes, it's just b/c of dryness in the air. or, if it happens frequently, you should have it checked by a doctor, you could have something seriously wrong.
