Nosebleed

Recommendations:

• Drink cool water.
• Dip a clean cloth in cold water and place it on forehead and nose. Gently blow the nose so that if there is any clot it can come out.
• Inhale some cool water and gently blow your nose.
• Pinch your nose with your thumb and index finger. Hold it for 2-3 minutes while breathing through the mouth.
