I don’t have all the answers, but getting my nostril cauterized put a stop to frequent, gushing nosebleeds that would literally just pour out. I was miserable for 18y until I had the cauterization done. The procedure wasn’t fun, healing was annoying, but worth it.

I used to have an occasional nosebleed, maybe once a month or less. Usually when I was in bed.
I mentioned it, because I had one that morning, to the doctor at the ENT clinic I had gone to for a sinus issue.
He said he could take care of that and cauterized my nose.
I started having nosebleeds once or twice a day. When it was still happening two weeks later, I called the clinic who suggested I go to the ED. Not back to them (they are part of the hospital).
I went to my doctor instead, who had a look. They eventually stopped, but I still get the odd one.
