Best Answer

Of course you should have clean tissues available to catch any of the dripping blood. (blood stains clothes)

Get a tissue box and put it by ur side (you will need it)

Pinch the cartiledge of ur nose (the middle part it kinda feels hard) from whatever nostril the blood is coming from. Pinch the nostril(s) so it is closed.(for about 5-10 minutes depending on how bad it is) Slightly tilt back but not so they blood goes down ur throat)

Avoid tilting ur head back because the blood drips down ur throat and trust me, IT'S NOT a good feeling.

BREATH! think calm thoughts, don't panic. Even if u hate blood don't panic because IT'S ALWAYS INSIDE OF UR BODY EVEN IF U DON'T KNOW IT!

* IF IT LASTS LONGER THAN 20 MINUTES CALL A DOCTOR! (If it goes too long u could loose too much blood)

Pinch the bridge of your nose and tilt your head back and lie down on a couch or recliner, not allowing the blood to flow out and drip. Keep a tissue in both nostrils (or dab when necessary with your own hands at will) and when you feel the bleeding stop, you can stand up now.

If your nose bleed gets worse than you need to tell a docter. This could be due to a blow to the head or possibly a high fever.

For a simple nose bleed the best first aid is to?

Most people think to stop a nose bleed you should put your head back and wait for it to stop, but you should never do this. Get a tissue, fold it 2 or 4 times into a square. Hold it so it will soak up the blood that escapes, but instead of pinching the end of your nose closed, pinch the upper boney part of your nose near the base. This will stop the flow of blood gradually. Breath through your nose and don't blow your nose for at least a day. Hope this help!
