This looks like an acute on chronic sinusitis. The bleeding may be due to mucosal inflammation and crusting due to dried up secretions.
Do not worry.

Saline nasal spray (solspre) to loosen the secretions
Oxymetazoline nasal drops 5 drops three times a day for 5 days only - for decongestion
Fluticasone nasal spray 2puffs to both nostrils twice a day for 1 week - to reduce inflammation

Seems like nothing to worry about. It must be due to forceful blowing of nose or sniffing. Avoid doing this as nasal mucosa is inflamed right now and can lead to mild bleeding.
