Blood in the urine may indicate urinary tract infection or stones (although stones are unlikely in such a young pig). A bloody nose may indicate infection or injury in the respiratory tract. If it persists or worsens, have Jojo examined by your veterinarian or a vet experienced in treating pocket pets.
