Reb, you wife needs medical assistance.
Causes of upper septum nose bleeds
# High blood pressure
# Disease of the arteries such as atherosclerosis
# Side effects of medications and drugs such as aspirin, cocaine
# Bleeding disorders
# Nasal tumors, cancerous and non-cancerous
# Serious trauma such as a displaced broken nose from car crashes, falls etc
# Leukemia
# Osler-Weber-Rendu syndrome, a hereditary disease where a growth like a birth mark is located in the nose.
# Infection
Cheers ... Ray
