How to Stop a Nosebleed — Basic First Aid Steps🩸 Nosebleeds can be scary, but most can be stopped with a few simple first aid steps: 1️⃣ Stay calm and sit upright — this reduces blood pressure in the nose. 2️⃣ Lean slightly forward — don’t tilt your head back. 3️⃣ Pinch the soft part of your nose just below the bridge and hold for 10-15 minutes. 4️⃣ Breathe through your mouth and avoid talking or swallowing too much. 💡 An effective alternative is using a nasal plug such as NamponsTM️— specially designed to stop nosebleeds quickly and safely. They’re easy to use, gentle on the nose, and more effective than tissues or cotton. 👉🏾SHARE this post to help spread the word during National Nosebleed Awareness Week🩸 👉🏾FOLLOW @nosebleedsorg on IG and check out www.nosebleeds.org for more information about nosebleeds🩸
