Does anyone have any magic tricks for stopping a nosebleed quickly?

I thought mine had almost stopped - but far from it. I had 7 yesterday and have had 4 so far today. It means spending an excessive amount of time in the loo and I'm sure my co-workers are wondering what I'm up to in there. lol.

Put an ice cold pack on the back of the top of your neck, most nosebleeds are from the head overheating,

Hiya I used to get chronic nosebleeds as a kid - the best thing I found was to keep your head in a normal position and pinch the bottom of your nose as you would when dunking your head under water. Usually will go away within a minute max. Hope they clear up for you soon - theres nothing more annoying!!

Thanks alyxw. Yes, they're very annoying. Especially when I'm just chatting to someone and I suddenly start dripping!!

Lucky though - it hasn't happened out in public yet.

Depending on where you are at the time, try lying on your side while pinching your nose. Works a treat

Had an appt with my obs today and mentioned the nosebleeds - he was quite alarmed at how many I'm having - so he's 'quarterised' my nose. I think this means he's burnt the blood vessels - but he seems to think they'll calm down now - lets hope so!!
