Frequent nosebleeds from minor scratches are often due to dry, fragile nasal membranes. To prevent bleeding, keep your nasal passages moist by applying a thin layer of generic petroleum jelly or a soothing saline nasal gel inside your nostrils twice daily using a cotton swab. To safely clear bothersome blood clots without triggering fresh bleeding, avoid blowing your nose forcefully. Instead, use a gentle saline nasal spray or rinse to loosen and dissolve the clots so they can drain naturally. If your nosebleeds are very frequent, heavy, or do not stop with pressure, please consult a doctor to rule out any underlying issues.
