- With bleeding from the nose, many almost reflexively tilt their head back. This can not be done, since the blood on the back wall of the nasopharynx will drain into the larynx, and from there it can accidentally get into the airways or into the stomach, causing vomiting. Also, it's wrong to lie down on the pillow.
- You have to sit down, tilt your head forward and press your chin to your chest.
Attach a handkerchief, soaked in cold water, or ice wrapped in a napkin. The cold will help narrow the blood vessels, this will reduce the bleeding. - Dip into the nose vasoconstrictive drops from the cold. In an emergency, 2-3 drops of freshly squeezed lemon juice can replace them.
- If the bleeding is not very strong, with your thumb and index finger, press the wings of the nose to the nasal septum and breathe through the mouth. After 5-7 minutes, the blood usually stops.
- You can use the method of su-dzhok: for 10 minutes, drag the thumb of the hand at the level of the middle of the nail with a string or with a rubber band. This zone corresponds reflexively to the area of the nose.
- In case of severe bleeding, insert into the nostrils the cotton bubuds,oistened in a 3% solution of hydrogen peroxide, in sea-buckthorn or dog-rose oil or simply in water. Tampon hold for about half an hour. If it cools to the wall of the nose, do not try to tear it off. This can cause a repeated, even more severe bleeding. First, soak the swab with water, then gently pull it out. If these measures did not lead to a blood stop, call for an "ambulance".
What causes bleeding?
To the nose fit a large number of blood vessels, so even the smallest injury can cause heavy bleeding. Blood from the nose happens with a cold , because of the drying of the mucus in the cold, with dry air in the room.
