Why do some people get a Nose bleed - Bloody Nose - Nose Bleed - The nose was built for bleeding a doctor once told me. He said the nose was filled with numerous blood vessels,
and many of these are thin and are on the surface of the inside of the nose. It takes very little damage to break one of
these blood vessels whcih can cause severe bleeding. A smack or blow to the nose can lead to severe bleeding, as well as
dry air in the winter causing the nose lining to crack, picking the nose can easily break a vessel, as well as sharply
blowing the nose. Even high blood pressure or bending down can cause enough pressure to break a vessel inside the nose.
Smoking cigarettes can dry and crack the nose lining, and taking medications that thin the blood can cause severe nose
bleeds.
Stopping a Nose Bleed - Bloody Nose - Nose Bleed - Once a nose startes bleeding what can you do to stop it, basicaly nothing except sit and wait. There are two
things folks tell you to do. 1. Sit down and remain calm, keep the head elevated and just relax until the bleeding stops.
2. Sit and keep the head elevated, but gently pinch the sides of the nostrils together and hold for a few moments until
the bleeding stops. I have never had good luck when I was a kid and had a major nose bleed, it was best if I sat still and
left the nose alone until it stopped bleeding, pinching seemed to make things worse. Once your nose stops bleeding, leave
it alone, any rubbing, sneezing, picking or much activity can easily get it bleeding again. Also the inside of the nose will
feel crusty, this is clots and scabs forming. Do not blow the nose hard or pick at it for at least 24 hours or you rish it
bleeding again. Any severe nose bleed, that lasts more than 15 minutes should warrant a trip to the local Emergency Room or
doctors office. When I was a kid the right side of my nose would'nt stop bleeding, my parents took me to the local Hospital
where the doctor cauterized the blood vessel, the right side of my nose has never bled since.
Simple things you can do to help prevent a Nose Bleed - Bloody Nose - Nose
Bleed.
When I was a kid I always got nose bleeds it seemed. If I was digging my boogers I could get a bad bloody nose. If I had
a cold and blew my nose much it would bleed, if I bumped or had my nose smacked it would bleed. If I drank hot chocolate
it would often bleed. It seemed I spent most of my childhood holding my head up because my nose was bleeding, lol.
Then finaly after gushing more blood then what was probably spilled in a slaughter house, the doctors discovered something,
'Duh! I was sensitive or allergic to aspirin'. Aspirin thins your blood, and it can cause severe nosebleeds in some
people. Once my parents stopped the aspirins my nosebleeds slowed a lot, and when I learned to baby my nose they stopped
even more. I had to blow it very gently when I had a cold, or just softly wipe it. I had to pick it gently etc. Now I may
get a nosebleed once every 4 years or more, and when I do it bleeds very little.
The strange thing is, my daughter often gets em too, lol so I guess it's something I passed down to her. Anyway, if you or
the kids have em, the first thing to stop is any aspirin or anacins, anything but tylenol. I take tylenol by the handfull
and it never gives me a bloodynose.
How to keep a nose healthy
1. Keep the inside of the nose moist year around. There are nasal gels you can purchase in many drug stores. Run a
Humidifyer in the winter to keep the air from getting too dry.
2. Keep your blood pressure under control.
3. Watch your intake of blood thinning mecications such as aspirin
4. Don't dig or pick it, or blow it sharply. When you sneeze open the mouth.
