What not to do when you have a nosebleed?

Answer 1

not smoke or take hormonal pills. seek doctors advice. eat aspirine a day. don't get your blood pressure high.

if your bloo clot is there you should be taken into the hospital and given heparine over time and have the blood clot monitored to make sure it dissolves.

also to keep your blood flowing properly you should look for anti clotting thights or socks, if the blood clot is in your legs. best are made by Sigvaris, but expensive, less expensive are those made by Scholl. but everything should be constulted with your doctor so that there is not too much but enough pressure. also walk a lot when allowed.

sleep with legs up (you can put a 5cm high blocks of wood under the "legs" of your bed where your feet are, so that your head is lower.

don't cross your legs while sitting and try put your feet up whenever you can.

I'm talking about blood clots in your leg as they are most common.
