Q:
How do you stop a bloody nose?
A:
You pinch with thumb and index finger right below the bony
bridge of the nose (fairly high) and hold constantly for at least 10
minutes. If the bleeding persists, hold for another 10 minutes. If that
still doesn't stop the bleeding, it is time to go in for medical
intervention. A spray of a neosynephrine (vasoconstricting) spray can also
be beneficial, but over doing that will perpetuate the problem.
