What is a stuffy nose with a nose bleed?

Question
Hi doctor,
Recently, I feel like something is obstructing my breathing in the left side of my nose. Sometimes my nose bleeds but not much. Nose bleeds only in the nose and does not come out, about once a week or two weeks. Currently, I can still breathe normally with both nostrils, but there is something obstructing the left side of the nose. So the doctor asked me what is a stuffy nose on one side with a nosebleed? Please advise, thank you.
