If you’re having a nose bleed, don’t worry. Here’s what to do whilst you wait for it to stop:
- Sit down and lean forward – don’t lie down or tilt your head back.
- Pinch your nose just above your nostrils – do this for around 10 to 15 minutes.
- Breathe through your mouth.
Once the bleeding has stopped, try to avoid blowing or picking your nose for at least a day.
