Not to be crude but, after 2 weeks now blowing my nose has any one else experienced small traces of blood. Don’t know if I should get it checked out?

Sorry, I didn’t experience that after quitting smoking...actually had a lot of nose bleeds a few years ago when I blew my nose and saw an ENT and had to have some cauterizations done...and that corrected the situation...if it continues you may want to call your Doctor...~ Colleen
I get a small amount of this when I blow my nose this time of year. It is caused by the dry air. If it continues or increases, I'd check with your doctor.

Thank you guys was starting to panic.
Not a doctor, but in the winter the inside, heated air is dry and a lot of nose blowing might be causing a small vessel to be irritated and bleed. Have you tried nose moisturizing sprays - like saline - or adding moisture to your house air by leaving out shallow pans of water or running a vaporizer?
If you are concerned, do give your doc a call.
Probably not connected to quitting smoking!
