How to stop nose bleeding?
Here are some steps to help stop a nosebleed:
Pinch your nostrils: Pinch your nostrils together and lean forward slightly to prevent the blood from flowing down your throat.
Breathe through your mouth: Breathe through your mouth to avoid swallowing blood.
Apply pressure: Keep pinching your nostrils for about 5-10 minutes or until the bleeding stops.
Ice: After the bleeding has stopped, apply an ice pack or a bag of frozen peas to the bridge of your nose to help constrict the blood vessels and reduce swelling.
Moisturize: Keep your nasal passages moist by using a saline spray or applying petroleum jelly.
If the bleeding persists or is severe, it is recommended to seek medical attention. Additionally, if you have frequent nosebleeds, it's important to identify and treat the underlying cause, such as a nasal injury, dry air, or a medical condition.
